Team News

Vasco da Gama
Palmeiras
  • Martín Silva could start after returning from Uruguay duty.
  • But the rest of the side could be unchanged after the win over São Paulo.
  • Werley made an impact on his return at centre-back, helping Vasco to a clean sheet.
  • Gustavo Scarpa is available again after serving a ban in midweek.
  • He is not the only one hoping to come into the side for what could be their title coronation.
  • Felipe Melo, Deyverson, Moisés and others are all pushing for inclusion.

Prediction

  • Their hopes of sealing the title on home soil against América Mineiro were dashed by Flamengo, but it's only a matter of time for Palmeiras now.
  • A win in Rio would do it, but they'll be aware that Vasco have been pretty tricky to beat at home: they haven't lost in six at São Januário.
  • That run includes a fine 2-0 success over São Paulo in midweek, which eased their relegation fears hugely – right in the nick of time.
