Juventude and Vasco da Gama do not have a rich head-to-head history. They went 15 years without meeting until Juventude were successfully promoted to the Brazil Serie A for the 2024 season. Last season, Juventude went unbeaten against Vasco da Gama in both encounters, recording a 2-0 home win in June and a 1-1 away draw four months later.
Juventude team overview
The home side have not had the best start to the season and are currently among the four teams that would be relegated if the season ended today. Until last week, they were on a four-game losing streak before securing an unexpected 2-1 home win over Corinthians and managing a 2-2 draw against Vitória last weekend. Three more points on Wednesday would not lift Juventude out of the relegation zone but would extend their unbeaten run to three matches.
Juventude will have to cope without central defender Cipriano, who was sent off in the last game against Vitória and will serve at least a one-game suspension.

Vasco da Gama team overview
The away side comes into this game on the back of their biggest win of the season so far—at the weekend, they put six past Santos FC to claim a remarkable 6-0 victory. This statement win followed a 1-1 draw with Atlético-MG, giving Vasco da Gama two consecutive games without defeat. The six-goal haul against Santos allowed Vasco to move out of the relegation zone thanks to a superior goal difference.
Unfortunately, Vasco da Gama are not without suspensions and injuries to key players. Pablo Vegetti and Paulo Henrique, as well as long-term absentees Guilherme Estrella and Adson, are likely to miss out.

Prediction
Juventude have performed slightly better over the past week or so, collecting four points from a possible six in matches against Vitória and Corinthians. They have also won two of their last three home league encounters. Vasco da Gama, on the other hand, despite a 6-0 thrashing of Santos FC at the weekend, have won only once on the road in their last three matches. What’s more, Juventude remain undefeated against Vasco da Gama in their last two head-to-head encounters. We predict that Juventude will avoid defeat on Wednesday (double chance X1).
Three reasons we expect Double chance x1
- Juventude are undefeated against Vasco da Gama in the last two H2H meetings (1W 1D)
- Juventude have won 2 of their last 3 home matches in the league
- Vasco da Gama have won only one of their last 3 away matches in the league
