Under pressure at Santos, Vojvoda has no fond memories of Vasco | OneFootball

This Thursday, Santos faces Vasco in the fourth round of the Brazilian Championship. Coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda is under pressure at the helm of Peixe, and tonight's opponent does not bring good memories.

The Argentine has faced Cruzmaltino seven times, all during his tenure at Fortaleza: two wins, two draws, and three losses — a success rate of only 38%.

During this period, Vojvoda also suffered an elimination against Vasco in the 2024 Copa do Brasil. There were two draws, 0-0 in the first leg in Fortaleza and 3-3 in Rio de Janeiro. In the penalty shootout, the team from Rio won 5-4 and advanced to the round of 16.

The last match between the coach and Vasco took place on May 17, 2025, when the team from Rio defeated Fortaleza 3-0 at São Januário.

Now, Vojvoda is trying to improve his record against the Rio club. In case of a setback at Vila Belmiro, the coach is at serious risk of losing his job.

In the Brasileirão, Santos' situation is concerning. In three matches, the Alvinegro Praiano has one draw and two losses. With only one point, the team enters the round in 18th place.
