Vasco arrive in São Paulo to face Corinthians in the Copa do Brasil final | OneFootball

Vasco is already on São Paulo soil for the first leg of the Copa do Brasil final. The Cruzmaltino delegation landed in São Paulo on Tuesday night, on the eve of the clash against Corinthians, which will be played at the Neo Química Arena.

For the decisive match, coach Fernando Diniz still cannot count on Lucas Piton, Jair, Adson, and Paulinho, all of whom are in the medical department and out of action until the end of the season.

With no other absences, the coach is expected to field his strongest lineup and repeat the formation used in the match that secured qualification against Fluminense last Sunday.

The only special attention is for Pablo Vegetti. The Argentine striker is one booking away from suspension and, if he receives a card in the match in São Paulo, will be suspended for the return leg of the final in Rio de Janeiro.

Vasco’s Lineup

Thus, the probable Cruzmaltino lineup is: Léo Jardim; Paulo Henrique, Carlos Cuesta, Robert Renan, and Pumita Rodríguez; Thiago Mendes, Cauan Barros, and Philippe Coutinho; Nuno Moreira, Andrés Gómez, and Rayan.

Vasco is aiming to lift the Copa do Brasil trophy for the second time in its history, repeating the feat of 2011. In addition, if they win the title, they will secure a direct spot in the group stage of the 2026 Libertadores.
