The classic marks the meeting of rivals in opposite situations. The flu arrives for the shock after having guaranteed the direct classification of the Libetadores 2026 in the last round of the Brasileirão. Tricolor are undefeated in seven games and look to maintain their positive streak against their local opponent.
Cruzmaltino arrives at his lowest point, after a disappointing end to the championship. In the last round of the Brasileirão, Vasco was beaten 5 x 0 by Atlético-MG. The club finished the tournament in only 14th place in the standings.
