Corinthians and Vasco drew 0-0 in the first leg of the final, at Neo Química Arena. Therefore, the tie is completely open. Whoever wins Sunday’s match lifts the trophy. If the score remains tied, the decision will go to penalties.
Chasing their fourth title, Corinthians have had a consistent campaign in the Copa do Brasil. In nine matches played, they have eight wins and just one loss, with ten goals scored and two conceded. In addition, Dorival Júnior’s team has won every away game.
Timão eliminated Novorizontino, Palmeiras, Athletico-PR, and Cruzeiro to reach the final.
Vasco, meanwhile, is aiming to lift the trophy for the second time in its history. Fernando Diniz’s team has four wins, six draws, and one loss in eleven matches, with 15 goals scored and seven conceded. The Cruzmaltino has yet to be defeated at home in the competition.
Before reaching the final, the team knocked out Fluminense, Botafogo, CSA, Operário-PR, Nova Iguaçu, and União Rondonópolis.
Corinthians and Vasco have faced each other 108 times throughout history. The São Paulo side holds a wide advantage: 49 wins, compared to 25 for Cruzmaltino, along with 34 draws.
The recent record is also extremely favorable to Timão. The Parque São Jorge team has lost only one match to Vasco in the last 15 years. There have been 26 matches in this period, with 16 wins for Corinthians and nine draws.
Corinthians will have their full squad available for the final. The eight players who were at risk of suspension got through the first leg unscathed and can play normally at Maracanã. Also, so far, there are no new injury cases.
Still, Dorival is considering changes to the team. One player who may lose his starting spot is midfielder José Martínez.
On the other side, Fernando Diniz is expected to repeat the same lineup as in the first leg. The absentees are the injured Adson, Lucas Piton, Jair, and Matheus Carvalho.
Hugo Souza; Matheuzinho, André Ramalho, Gustavo Henrique, and Matheus Bidu; Raniele, Maycon, Breno Bidon, and Rodrigo Garro; Memphis Depay and Yuri Alberto.
Léo Jardim; Paulo Henrique, Carlos Cuesta, Robert Renan, and Puma Rodríguez; Cauan Barros, Thiago Mendes, and Philippe Coutinho; Nuno Moreira, Andrés Goméz, and Rayan.
