Madureira v Vasco: how to watch, line-ups, Brenner and Marino in | OneFootball

Madureira and Vasco da Gama close out the fifth round of the Taça Guanabara this Monday (2), at 8pm (Brasília time). Although the home advantage belongs to the Suburban Tricolor, the match will be played at São Januário due to the lack of technical reports at Conselheiro Galvão stadium to host major events. The Cruz-Maltino enters the field under pressure to return to the G-4 of Group A, while coach Fernando Diniz prepares changes to the starting lineup with the aim of rotating the squad.

The match will be broadcast live on Sportv (cable TV), Premiere (pay-per-view), and GETV (YouTube).

News and Absences at Vasco

The squad list brought important surprises for the fans. Coach Fernando Diniz will not have Philippe Coutinho, Saldivia, Matheus França, and the young GB, who were left out. Saldivia’s absence forces a change in defense, with Víctor Cuesta likely to start.

On the other hand, the game could mark some long-awaited debuts. Forwards Brenner and Marino Hinestroza have been included in the squad for the first time and are available. Since the coaching staff wants to avoid excessive fatigue after the defeat to Mirassol in the Brasileirão, it’s possible that Diniz will field a mixed lineup, giving playing time to names like Daniel Fuzato in goal and JP in midfield.

Madureira’s Situation

Madureira is betting on the return of coach Toninho Andrade to spring a surprise. The coach, now in his fourth stint at the club, has a full squad available and hopes to use the “home factor” (even while playing at their rival’s ground) to earn points and complicate things for the big teams, aiming for qualification in Group B.
