Vasco da Gama

  • Matheus Henrique can return from a ban. Joao Marcelo is banned for this one.
  • Fernando Diniz is the new manager of Cruzeiro and will take charge of his first league game here.
  • Paulinho, Adson, Jair and Estrella miss this battle.

Prediction

  • Cruzeiro have had a busy week. First, they drew 0-0 with Cuiaba in the league, before a 1-1 draw in the Copa Sudamericana which saw them progress into the Semi-final stage with an aggregate 3-1 win over Paraguayan side Libertad. Cruzeiro sit seventh in the Brasilerao.
  • Vasco da Gama are winless in their last two league meeting and will be hoping to improve here. Last weekend, they suffered a 1-0 home loss to title-chasing Palmeiras. Vasco currently sit tenth in the league standings.
