On October 1st, 2025, Palmeiras and Vasco will face off in a crucial Brasileirão match at Allianz Parque. Palmeiras, the home team, is currently in the hunt for the league lead and desperately needs a win to continue its pursuit. Meanwhile, Vasco is looking to distance itself from the relegation zone and secure a much-needed result.
Palmeiras will be without the services of midfielder Lucas Evangelista, who suffered a muscle injury in the team's previous game and is not expected to play again this year. Additionally, defender Carlos Cuesta is also out due to injury. Despite these setbacks, Palmeiras will be relying on the likes of Raphael Veiga, Felipe Anderson, Flaco López, and Vitor Roque to lead the offensive charge.
On the other hand, Vasco will welcome back midfielder Tchê Tchê to the starting lineup, providing a boost to their squad. The visitors will be aiming to capitalize on Palmeiras' injury woes and secure a valuable away point, or even a surprise victory, to aid their fight against relegation.
