It’s Peñarol vs. Corinthians night in the Copa Libertadores.
They will face off starting at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Campeón del Siglo, in Montevideo, this Thursday (21).
The match is valid for the fifth round of Group E in the competition.
Piero Maza (FIFA-CHI) will referee the match.
ESPN and Disney+ will broadcast it.
The clash is more than decisive. In the event of a loss, Carbonero - who have only two points - will be eliminated.
A draw would only keep alive their chances of fighting for a spot in the Copa Sudamericana.
Diego Aguirre will be without Lucas Ferreira (suspended). Javier Cabrera, Nahuel Herrera, Leo Fernández, Franco González, and Brandon Álvarez are also in the medical department.
The lineup has not been announced yet.
Timão, with ten points, are the group leaders.
They have already qualified for the round of 16 and will secure first place if they earn at least one point.
Fernando Diniz will be without Matheus Bidu, who is recovering from a sprained left ankle.
Memphis, Kayke, Vitinho, João Pedro Tchoca, and Hugo remain in the medical department.
Milans, Angileri (who was already expected to play), Allan, Matheus Pereira, André, Labyad, Kaio César, and Pedro Raul are set to get their chances.
