In this Copa Libertadores fixture, Estudiantes host Flamengo at home, and the two sides come into the game off very different results. The hosts could only manage a 2-2 draw in the league, while the visitors won 1-0 away in the Brazilian league. Estudiantes have won 4 and lost 6 of 12 league games this season, but at home they are still unbeaten, taking 2 wins and 3 draws from their last 5 games at this ground and conceding on average under one goal per game. Flamengo, meanwhile, are unbeaten in 5 games in all competitions, and away from home they are also unbeaten in 5, with a particularly stingy away defence that concedes on average just 0.4 goals per game. The pattern of the game is likely to see Flamengo dominate possession and gradually probe for an opening, while Estudiantes at home will not throw men forward. If the hosts score first, the game will close up even more, and the visitors will have to chase an equaliser without overthinking it, which is a situation Flamengo are comfortable in.
