Saturday August 29, at 9:20 p.m. (Brasília time), Vasco da Gama receives Cruzeiro in São Januário, in the São Cristóvão district, in Rio de Janeiro, on behalf of the 25th day of the Brazilian Championship. The meeting will be broadcast live on Premiere, as well as on Record and CazTV, depending on the region.
Vasco, 19th with 23 points in 23 games, is struggling to escape the relegation zone. A victory is imperative to hope to move up the rankings and breathe before the end of the season.
Cruzeiro, de son côté, pointe en milieu de tableau et vise une place en Copa Libertadores. L'équipe de Pedro Emanuel compte sur sa solidité défensive pour contrer les attaques cariocas.
Portuguese technician Artur Jorge, who manages Vasco, has a positive record against his compatriots, but this will be his first face-to-face with Pedro Emanuel. The two coaches know each other well having played in the Portuguese championship.
Pour cette rencontre, Vasco devrait aligner son attaquant vedette, tandis que Cruzeiro mise sur son milieu de terrain créatif. Les compositions officielles seront dévoilées une heure avant le coup d'envoi.
Le match promet d'être disputé, les deux équipes ayant besoin de points pour des raisons différentes. Les supporters présents à São Januário mettront une pression énorme sur l'arbitrage et les joueurs.
If successful, Vasco could leave the red zone, depending on the other results of the day. A defeat, on the other hand, would seriously complicate the club's task of maintaining.
The next deadline for Vasco is scheduled for September 5, with a perilous trip to Palmeiras. Cruzeiro will continue at home against Internacional, the same weekend.
