Team News

Vitoria
Vasco da Gama
  • Marcelo Meli and Neilton are both available after suspension.
  • And Lucas Fernandes is free to play after missing out against parent club Fluminense.
  • But a host of players, including Arouca and Willian Farias are still out.
  • Leandro Desábato serves a ban after picking up three yellow cards.
  • That will probably mean Andrey comes in for a start.
  • Leandro Castán remains sidelined, so Bruno Silva continues in defence.

Prediction

  • Vitória have tightened up at the back in the last fortnight, keeping three clean sheets on the spin, and have reaped the rewards.
  • The Lions have claimed seven points from those games, dragging themselves out of the relegation zone and up to 14th at the start of this midweek round.
  • Another positive result here would be really handy, not least because Vasco – two points worse off before kick-off – are also scrapping for survival.
