Where to watch Vasco vs São Paulo live?

How is Vasco doing?

The Giant of the Hill is experiencing its best moment of the season. Under the command of Fernando Diniz, the team has won four consecutive matches and jumped from the lower part of the table to eighth place, with 42 points. A victory against São Paulo could firmly place Vasco in the fight for a spot in the next edition of the Libertadores.

For the match, Diniz will have the return of Rayan, recovered from an edema. However, Adson, Jair, and Paulo Ricardo remain in the medical department, while Benjamín Garré is still doubtful due to a physical issue.

How is São Paulo doing?

The São Paulo Tricolor is trying to regain balance after an irregular sequence. Hernán Crespo's team is in ninth place, with 41 points. The match against Vasco is considered decisive to keep the Libertadores dream alive.

For the match against Vasco, São Paulo will have ten absences. They are: Luciano and Maik (suspended), Wendell (partial rupture of the plantar fascia of the left foot), Oscar (muscle injury in the left calf), Luan (adductor injury in the right thigh), Leandro (knee pain in the right knee), Calleri (physical transition), André Silva (posterior cruciate ligament injury and anterior cruciate ligament strain in the right knee), Ryan Francisco (ACL surgery and meniscus injury in the left knee), and Dinenno (arthroscopy in the right knee).

On the other hand, Crespo will have an important reinforcement. Defender Ferraresi returns to availability after serving a suspension against Bahia due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Rafael Tolói, recovered from injury, should also return to the squad. Cédric Soares, however, is doubtful.
