Vasco heads to the south of the country for a direct clash against Coritiba on Wednesday night (01). The match, valid for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship, will be played at the historic Couto Pereira stadium at 8:30 p.m. Fans will be able to follow all the excitement of the duel through live broadcasts on SporTV and Premiere.
Under the command of coach Renato Gaúcho, the Rio club is going through a moment of great optimism and a clear recovery in the standings. Since the coach’s arrival, the team has earned nine of the last twelve points available, climbing to ninth place overall with 11 points. However, the manager will have problems putting together the starting eleven, as forward Andrés Gómez is serving an automatic suspension for a third yellow card and full-back Cuiabano is out injured.
To make up for these important absences, the tendency is for Colombian forward Marino to take the spot in attack and wing-back Lucas Piton to return to the starting lineup at Vasco’s left-back position. The probable starting team will take the field with:
Léo Jardim; Paulo Henrique, Saldivia, Robert Renan and Lucas Piton; Hugo Moura, Thiago Mendes, Tchê Tchê and Nuno Moreira; Marino and David.

On the other side of the pitch, the Paraná-based opponent is trying to take advantage of home field to remain among the frontrunners. Currently in seventh place with 13 points, the home team is enjoying a good run of form, but coach Fernando Seabra is dealing with a series of absences and will need to find urgent alternatives in the squad. The probable lineup includes:
Pedro Rangel; JP Chermont (Tinga); Rodrigo Moledo, Tiago and Bruno Melo; Wallisson, Sebastián Gómez and Josué; Lucas Ronier, Lavega and Breno Lopes.
The whistle for this important Vasco clash will be in the hands of referee Ramon Abatti Abel, assisted on the lines by Thiaggo Americano Labes and Bruno Muller. The VAR booth will be led by referee Daiane Muniz, ensuring the necessary technological support for this top-flight match.
