The round of 16 of the Brazil Cup-2025 begins this Tuesday (29) with Botafogo versus Red Bull Bragantino at Nilton Santos.

There are two "heavier" clashes in terms of the number of titles involved.

Meanwhile, three teams face significant challenges: to be among the top eight for the first time in their respective histories.

Check out a summary of each of the 16 teams' history that are still in pursuit of the trophy and see the money that is still at stake.

And see the dates of all the round of 16 matches here.

Athletico 🆚 São Paulo

The Hurricane won their title in 2019. While SPFC got there in 2023.

Atlético 🆚 Flamengo

A clash of seven trophies.

The Rooster was champion in 2014 and 2021. Meanwhile, the Red-Black lifted the trophy in 1990, 2006, 2013, 2022, and 2024. They are the current champions after having beaten Atlético.

Retro 🆚 Bahia

The team from Pernambuco is already having its best campaign in history.

The Bahian Tricolor's first goal is to match its best participations, as it reached the quarterfinals in 1989, 1990, 99, 2002, 2012, 18, 19, 2023, and 2024.

Fluminense 🆚 Internacional

The Tricolor celebrated their victory in 2007. While the Colorado succeeded in 1992. And precisely against the team from Rio.

Highlight to the fact that Roger Machado,  the author of the Tricolor's championship goal, is the coach of Inter.

CRB 🆚 Cruzeiro

The Regatas team seeks the best participation in its history, as it had already reached the round of 16 in 2014 and 2020.

Meanwhile, the Fox boasts the status of the most successful team with six titles: 1993, 1996, 2000, 2003, 2017, and 2018.

Vasco 🆚 CSA

The Cross-Maltino was champion in 2011.

They face the Bluebird of Mutange who tries to repeat 1992, when it was among the top eight.

The team that will debut a coach: Márcio Fernandes was hired last Monday (28) after the dismissal of Higo Magalhães.

Palmeiras 🆚 Corinthians

Another duel that brings together seven victories.

And that happens for the first time in the history of the Brazil Cup.

The Big Green has four trophies: 1998, 2012, 2015, and 2020.

And Timão, their biggest rival, got there three times: 1995, 2002, and 2009.

Red Bull Bragantino 🆚 Botafogo

The Massa Bruta has never been among the top eight. They stopped at the round of 16 in 2014 and 2020. They have such a mission against the Glorious.

The Alvinegro came close in 1999, when they were beaten by Juventude in the final.

The other champions are: Criciúma (1991), the already mentioned Juventude (1999), Santo André (2004), Paulista (2005), Sport (2008), Santos (2010), Grêmio (1989, 1994, 1997, 2001, and 2016)

Keep an eye on the MONEY 🤑

Vasco, Red Bull Bragantino, Atlético Mineiro, and Fluminense are the only representatives of the A Series that compete in the 2025 edition from the first phase.

And they can grab the largest total amount in case of a title, since they had higher quotas in the first two phases.

The final sum will be R$ 101 million if one of the mentioned quartet gets there.

Values that are still at stake:

Spot in the quarterfinals: R$ 4.7 million

Qualification to the semis: R$ 9.9 million

Runner-up: R$ 33 million

Title: R$ 77.1 million
