Relegation table

Per the rules of the Campeonato Carioca, for the purposes of relegation the standard tiebreaker criteria are not used. Since Duque de Caxias, Resende, and Friburguense all finished equal with 12 points in the relegation zone of the aggregate table, an additional double round-robin was played to determine relegation.
