Mixto Esporte Clube, usually known simply as Mixto, is a Brazilian football club from Cuiabá, Mato Grosso state. The club competed in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A several times and is one of the most popular clubs of Mato Grosso state. Mixto is also the most successful football club of Mato Grosso, having won twenty-four Campeonato Matogrossense titles.

History

The club was founded on May 20, 1934 by a mixed group of men and women, hence the club's name, but instead of using the correct spelling Misto, the wrong spelling Mixto was used, to differentiate the club from the misto sandwich.[1]

In 1943, Mixto won the Campeonato Matogrossense first edition.[2] In 1976, the club competed in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A for the first time, finishing in the 27th position.[3]
