Copa Sudamericana betting and spectator preview: San Lorenzo and Fortaleza meet at Estadio Pedro Bidegaín to measure strength and learn who makes it to the next stage.
These teams have little in common geographically as Fortaleza have to travel 4800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
There have been little to rest for the hosts, as they featured in a Superliga match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Talleres Cordoba.
San Lorenzo form and stats
Last season, San Lorenzo's Copa Sudamericana journey ended in the group stage.Lorenzo shared the glory with Talleres Cordoba in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Batalla, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 7.64 out of 10 in that game. Batalla saved a penalty and topped it up with a clean sheet.
Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Boca Juniors.There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for San Lorenzo, as the Superliga home game vs Platense is only three days away.
Fortaleza form and stats
There were no winners in Fortaleza's previous match, the home game that ended 1-1 vs Internacional. Midfielder Calebe was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.64. Calebe dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.
A home victory as anticipated against Aguia de Maraba ahead of that, in the Copa do Brasil.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Serie A trip to Coritiba.
