The classic between Vasco and Fluminense, next Saturday (16), at 4pm (Brasília time), for the Brazilian Championship, will have a full house. This Thursday, Cruz-Maltino, host of the match, reported that tickets for the duel valid for the 23rd round of the competition are sold out. More than 40 thousand fans are expected to attend the classic.
Tickets went on sale last Monday to Vasco members. On Wednesday, the sale was opened to the general public and Fluminense fans. Before sales began to other fans, Vasco members had already purchased 25,000 tickets.

Just like in the first round classic, at Maracanã, the visiting fans were entitled to only 10% of the tickets. Fluminense fans will stay in the South Sector of Nilton Santos. In the match of the round, Vasco and Fluminense were tied at 1 to 1.4
Vasco signs agreement to release public in São Januário
As São Januário was still closed and was only released to the public after signing the TAC with the Public Ministry, last Wednesday, and Maracanã is closed for the restoration of the pitch with an eye on the final of the Copa do Brasil, Vasco took the classic with Fluminense for Nilton Santos. Cruz-Maltino even considered taking the match to another state, but, due to CBF deadlines, they kept the duel in Rio de Janeiro.
This Saturday’s classic will pit clubs that are in very different situations in the Brazilian Championship face to face. 21 points separate Fluminense from Vasco. While Tricolor is in 5th place, with 38, Cruz-Maltino is only 18th, with 17 points.
