Vasco Confirm São Januário for Vitória in Copa do Brasil Quarter-Final

Vasco have confirmed that São Januário will host the Copa do Brasil 2026 quarter-final first leg against Vitória on Wednesday 26 August 2026 at 21:30 Brasília time.

The plans to move the match to the Maracanã were blocked by the stadium concessionaire, run by Flamengo and Fluminense, citing pitch maintenance. Vasco pursued legal action to access the public venue, highlighting greater capacity and a more suitable location for the high-stakes encounter.

Ticketing details have been released for the highly anticipated match. Fans can purchase tickets online or at the stadium on the day of the game.
