Vasco visit Santa Fe in Bogotá on Tuesday for the Copa Sudamericana quarter-final first leg at El Campín, 2,640 metres above sea level, and will alter the line-up.

According to Globo.com, coach Pedro Emanuel has rested Cuesta, Andrés Gómez and Adson, who remained in Rio. Thiago Mendes is suspended and cannot feature, while Colidio is not registered for the competition.

The selections form part of a plan to manage workload as Vasco juggle the Brasileirão, Copa do Brasil and the Copa Sudamericana. The travelling party blends regulars, squad players and academy prospects, with Andrey Fernandes, Zuccarello, Bruno André, Avellar and Euder among those involved.

Vasco flew to Bogotá on Sunday and will hold a training session there on Monday as part of their preparation.

After the game, the team return to Rio before a short turnaround and another trip to face Grêmio in the Brasileirão on Saturday. Kick-off is at 19:00 Brasília time.
