This promises to be an action-packed encounter for Palestino at Estadio El Teniente when the Copa Sudamericana tournament arrives in town and Newell's Old Boys with it. Read all about the Group Stage match here!
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Superliga game only two days ago. That game was also an away game, at Rosario Central. 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.
Newell's Old Boys have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
