Team News

Vasco da Gama
Sao Paulo
  • Vasco are likely to be without Maxi López again here.
  • The talismanic striker missed out against São Paulo and was clearly missed.
  • Willian Maranhão is back after suspension and is an option in midfield.
  • André Jardine must replace centre-back Bruno Alves, who is suspended.
  • Rodrigo Caio and Anderson Martins are the main options.
  • The remainder of the starting XI could be unchanged.

Prediction

  • Vasco da Gama are hoping that their home form will be enough to get them over the line as the fight for survival reaches its climax.
  • The Rio side have lost just one of their last nine at São Januário in all competitions, and if they can escape the double bill of games against São Paulo and Palmeiras unbeaten, they will probably stay up.
  • But their visitors this midweek have rediscovered their mojo a touch, negotiating a tough run of fixtures with some aplomb over the last few weeks.
