For the last round of the Brasileirão, Vasco goes all or nothing to São Januário to guarantee his stay among the elite of Brazilian football
In the last round of the Brazilian championship, Vasco hosts Red Bull Bragantino this Wednesday (6), in São Januário. The ball rolls at 9:30 p.m. To save themselves from relegation, the Rio team is counting only on itself, after all with 42 points, in 16th position, it has a one point advantage over Bahia, which opens the Z4. However, if they fail to beat Massa Bruta, they will have to hope for the stumble of Tricolor de Aço, who will face Atlético-MG in Salvador.
Red Bull Bragantino, in turn, enters the field only to respect the calendar, as it is already classified for the initial phase of the Libertadores and can no longer enter the G4.

How Vasco arrives
For the São Januário match, the wait is for Gary Medel’s return. The Chilean was ruled out of the match against Grêmio due to a right thigh injury. But, even without being 100% recovered from the injury, the defender could be involved. Even coach Ramón Díaz will not have to give up Payet’s experience to start. But Marlon Gomes and Rossi could appear in the lineup.
This Wednesday’s match, in fact, will mark the reunion of Praxedes with Red Bull Bragantino. After all, the midfielder plays for Vasco, on loan from Massa Bruta. To continue with the player, the Rio club will have to pay around R$ 1 million.
How Red Bull Bragantino arrives
Coach Pedro Caixinha will have two important absences. Suspended Juninho Capixaba and Matheus Gonçalves are serving their suspension and are unavailable. The wounded Eduardo Santos and Nathan Camargo complete the list of victims. The Portuguese commander, however, will count on the returns of Eric Ramires and Alerrandro.
Regarding facing Vasco in a fundamental match for São Januário, Pedro Caixinha ruled out the possibility of his team entering the field with their foot on the brake, given that they really appreciate the Brasileirão.
“First of all, total respect for Vasco. But also total respect for the competition. Vasco depends only on himself in this position, which should not be comfortable at all. We must respect him, valorise that of the opponent, but also valorise what is an ethical sporting competition, competing very fair, strong and finishing in the best way,” Caixinha said about the match against Vasco.
