Does Saturday Vigil Mass count as Saturday Mass for the First Saturdays Devotion given to us at Fatima?

Thanks,

Conventual wisdom says no. Because the Vigil Mass is not the Mass of the day, but rather it is Sunday Mass.

However, in a pinch, I don't think that God is going to split hairs. But, for continuity's sake, I would say that the Mass of the day should be observed for the Saturday devotion.

Simply my opinion. I have not found any prudent documentation from the Church to support OR disprove my opinion.
