# Náutico football club performance in Série B > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/nutico-football-club-performance-in-srie-b > Updated: 2026-08-21T20:54:43.000Z. Sources: 26. Developments: 2. Náutico has experienced a period of instability in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B, characterized by a low points percentage of 26% over ten matches. During mid-August, the club faced significant defensive challenges due to a combination of suspensions and injuries involving players such as Betão, Arnaldo, Gustavo Henrique, and Pato Nuñez. By late August, the team’s form improved, entering a five-game unbeaten streak highlighted by a 1-0 victory over Ceará. This turnaround coincided with the return of several previously suspended players, including Betão, Pato Nuñez, and Arnaldo, though the squad faced a new setback with striker Vinícius sidelined by muscle pains ahead of a match against São Bernardo FC. On August 22, Náutico played to a 1-1 draw against São Bernardo FC at the Primeiro de Maio stadium. After Lucas Lima opened the scoring for the hosts, a late goal from Derek secured a point for Náutico. The result leaves the club in 15th place, positioned three points above the relegation zone. Following the match, coach Guilherme dos Anjos described the outcome as “condizente” (consistent) with the open nature of the game. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-21: Santos and Mirassol draw 1-1 in critical Brasileirão relegation battle Santos and Mirassol drew 1-1 in a key Brasileirão match.
