Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Bolívar & Audax Italiano face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Copa Sudamericana. All the pre-match information is available here!

Audax Italiano form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Bolívar and Real Garcilaso in order to reach 2nd Round of Copa Sudamericana. Italiano was sent out of Copa Sudamericana in the 1st round last season, when Botafogo turned out to be too strong.The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Audax Italiano so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 1-4-4 (win-draw-lose). Total Copa Sudamericana statistics for Audax Italiano: 2 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss.
Audax Italiano might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Everton proved too strong as Italiano slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Bicentenario Municipal de La Florida. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Bolívar in the Copa Sudamericana.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Italiano have scored 13 goals in 9 league games away. The Italiano manager F. Meneghini has some worries about the defense as 18 goals have been conceded in these travels.
