Match summary
Vasco da Gama vs Boca Juniors is the Copa Sudamericana Semi-finals second leg at the Maracanã on Wednesday 21 October 2026, where our model goes for a Boca Juniors win and a double chance of either side winning, with no draw.
Why this pick?
Our model backs Boca Juniors because our long-run, xG-based strength rating puts them ahead of Vasco da Gama, and both clubs sit clearly above the Copa Sudamericana average. The counterweight is Vasco's recent attacking output, above the league average for shots, big chances and time in the box, along with the one-goal lead from the first leg. What keeps the pick upright is Boca's own recent attacking numbers being the higher of the two and a defence rated the best in the competition, the sort of profile that can quiet a home side chasing the tie. It is a narrow call.
