Brazilian teams' record in Quito vs LDU, Palmeiras' Libertadores rivals | OneFootball

The Copa Libertadores is in its final stage. Next Thursday, Palmeiras will visit LDU in Quito, aiming to secure a spot in the final of the continental competition. However, the mission for the green team at altitude won't be easy, at least according to the track record of Brazilian teams at the home of the Ecuadorian team.

Unfavorable Record for Brazilians

Between 2020 and 2025, LDU hosted Brazilian clubs 13 times and achieved a favorable record: seven Ecuadorian victories, three draws, and three Brazilian victories.

The only Brazilian victories were at the beginning of this period. In 2020, in the Libertadores, Santos defeated LDU 2-1 in the round of 16 of the competition. Then, Flamengo beat the Ecuadorians in 2021, still in the group stage, by 3-2. Finally, in the same year, Grêmio defeated the home team 1-0 in the round of 16.

In other words, since then, it's been four years without a Brazilian victory at LDU's home in the Libertadores. Since then, the team has created good memories against Brazilian teams: in 2023, they eliminated São Paulo and Fortaleza – in the grand final – in the Copa Sudamericana. This year, they knocked out Botafogo and again the Tricolor in the Libertadores.

The return match between Palmeiras and LDU will be a week after the first leg. On October 30, Verdão will host the Ecuadorians at Allianz Parque at 9:30 PM (Brasília time).
