However, in 1995, the situation was opposite. Furacão was the one who guaranteed access to Series A in advance. In the last round, the two teams were tied, with Coxa in the lead due to goal difference.

However, the one who came away with the title was Athletico-PR. While Coritiba drew 1 x 1 with Mogi Mirim in the interior of São Paulo, Rubro-Negro thrashed Central de Caruaru 4 x 1 and became champions of Series B.
