Vasco ready for Copa do Brasil final v Corinthians, squad revealed | OneFootball

Vasco wrapped up preparations on Tuesday morning at CT Moacyr Barbosa for the first leg of the Copa do Brasil final against Corinthians. The match is scheduled for this Wednesday at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Neo Química Arena, in São Paulo (SP).

For this decisive clash, 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, repeating the formation used in the match that secured qualification against Fluminense last Sunday.

The only special attention is reserved for Pablo Vegetti. The Argentine striker is on a yellow card and, if booked in the match in São Paulo, will be suspended for the return leg of the final in Rio de Janeiro.

Thus, Vasco's probable starting 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 from 2011. In addition, if they win the title, they will secure a direct spot in the group stage of the 2026 Libertadores.
