Some people believe that as the 3-point-win criteria is officially recomended by FIFA since 1994 World Cup, this criteria would be the fairest for ranking Brazilian teams in Campeonato Brasileiro.
Tie-breakers: 1. Highest number of wins 2. Best Goal Difference 3. Highest number of goals scored
So, according to the 3-point-win criteria, here are the current (end of 2006) standings:
