Date and time confirmed for Estudiantes in Copa Libertadores semi-finals | OneFootball

Estudiantes de La Plata will face Flamengo in the Copa Libertadores semi-finals, with both legs set for 21:30. The tie opens on 15 October in Argentina, though the hosts currently need to switch venue due to away allocation rules.

Agencia Noticias Argentinas reports that defenders Leandro González Pírez and Tobías Palacios are suspended for the first leg after reaching the yellow-card limit. Estudiantes can amend their registered list for the semi-final and could add a defender, with changes permitted until Friday 9 October.

The club are seeking permission to cut the mandatory 4,000 away tickets to 2,000, with the same number then applied in Brazil. Stadiums under evaluation are the Ciudad de Lanús Néstor Díaz Pérez and the Presidente Juan Domingo Perón, known as the Cilindro de Avellaneda, as the Estadio Diego Armando Maradona is tied up with matches and concerts.

The return is scheduled for 22 October at the Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro.

In the other semi, Fluminense, who knocked out Platense in Vicente López, meet Palmeiras. The first leg is on 14 October and the second on 21 October to decide the other 2026 finalist.
