📋 Atlético announce XI for Sul-Americana semi v Del Valle | OneFootball

Atlético-MG takes the field this Tuesday (21st) at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), when they visit Independiente del Valle in Ecuador for the first leg of the semifinals of the 2025 Copa Conmebol Sudamericana.

The return match will be next Tuesday (28th) at Arena MRV in Belo Horizonte.

The winner will face Lanús or Universidad de Chile in the grand final of the tournament, which will be held on November 22nd.

In this 2025 edition, Galo was second in Group H with nine points, then eliminated Atlético Bucaramanga, Godoy Cruz, and Bolívar. 

And they might break a taboo: never having won a match in Ecuador in a South American tournament. They have two draws and two losses. 

It's the last country missing, as they have at least one victory in the others that are part of Conmebol: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela.

Regarding the last match (1-0 against Corinthians, in the Brasileirão), coach Jorge Sampaoli returned with preserved starters.

Cases of Scarpa, Rony, Dudu, and Bernard.

Gabriel Menino is the big news. 

Fausto Vera is serving a suspension.
