How to Bet on Remo

Clube do Remo started on 5 February 1905 as Grupo do Remo, set up by men who had left Sport Club do Pará. The early days were rough: the general assembly closed the club on 14 February 1908, and after a deal with Sport Club do Pará on 29 March 1908 Remo was officially extinct. It came back on 15 August 1911, reorganised on the initiative of a group that included Antonico Silva and Cândido Jucá. In 1950 Remo took a tour to Venezuela for the Caracas International Tournament, an event some publications call a precursor of the Little World Cup. The 1990s brought the best results in the club's history, the 7th place in the 1993 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A and the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil in 1991, both the best finishes by a team from the north. In 2000 Remo finished 3rd in the Copa João Havelange's Yellow Module, and in 2005 it won the Série C, its first national title.

Baenão in Belém is Remo's home, opened in 1917 and holding 14,032. For the biggest nights the club moves to the Mangueirão, which hosts the derbies against Paysandu and other major fixtures. The club's record attendance came there on 5 November 2000, when 55,000 fans watched a Copa João Havelange Group Yellow semifinal against Paraná. The venue can change with the size of the occasion, so it pays to check which ground a Remo fixture is played at before leaning on home form.
