It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Copa Libertadores. That game was also an away game, at The Strongest. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
