Sao Paulo can inch closer to a spot in the Copa Libertadores group stage next year with a victory on Wednesday against Vasco da Gama in Brasileiro action from Estadio Brinco de Ouro da Princesa.
Tricolor Paulista are fifth in the table following a 2-0 defeat at Cuiaba, while Vasco currently sit 10th, playing to a 1-1 draw against Juventude the last time out.
We say: Sao Paulo 1-0 Vasco da Gama
Both sides are struggling at the moment, but Sao Paulo seem to recover quicker following a disappointing result, which is why we project them to win a close one.

Fortaleza can temporarily reclaim second place in the Brasileiro with a victory on Wednesday versus Atletico Mineiro at Castelao.
Before the international break, Leao do Pici dropped to third, losing 3-1 to Gremio, while Mineiro are ninth following a 2-1 victory against that same Gremio side last Wednesday.
We say: Fortaleza 2-0 Atletico Mineiro
Fortaleza always seem to get the job done at home, and their opponents will be without two of their biggest attacking weapons in Hulk and Deyverson, which should make life a lot easier for the home team.
