Vasco will have a 10-day break during the FIFA Date to absorb the crisis. The three consecutive defeats (against São Paulo, Botafogo, and Juventude) have undermined the team's confidence. The problem is that the return sequence is one of the toughest of the season, involving three historical taboos.
The next two games for the Gigante da Colina will be as visitors. The first, on 11/19, is against Grêmio. The Cruz-Maltino hasn't beaten the team from the South since 2006. Worse: the club has never won at the Arena do Grêmio since its inauguration.
Four days later, the challenge is in Salvador, against Bahia (11/23). The record is even more grim. CRVG hasn't beaten Bahia in the Bahian capital since 2012. If we consider only games at Fonte Nova, the taboo dates back to 1987.
If life outside Rio is tough, the reunion with São Januário also presents a challenge. The third match in the sequence is against Internacional (11/29). Even at home, Vasco defends a recent negative record against the Colorado.
The Gigante da Colina hasn't beaten Internacional at São Januário since 2019. This information was highlighted by NewsColina. For a team desperately needing points, the Gigante will have to break history to recover.
