Match situation 🆚

Any new draw will send the tie to a penalty shootout, since the first leg ended 0-0.

Whoever advances will face Coquimbo Unido or Platense next, as well as securing prize money of $1.7 million.

The first leg on Argentine soil ended in a 1-1 draw. And the return leg will be this Wednesday (19).

Independiente Rivadavia 🔵⚪

Alfredo Berti will once again have midfielder Florentín available after he served a suspension in the first leg.

There were expectations of a more attacking lineup, and that was confirmed.

Libertadores top scorer with eight goals, Alex Arce is the team's biggest weapon.

Fluminense 🔴⚪🟢

Fluminense come in motivated after ending their winless streak.

Still serving as interim coach, Marcão will be without Savarino (pain in his right calf) and Igor Rabello (acromioclavicular dislocation in his left shoulder).

Thiago Silva returns after being rested against Palmeiras.

The big question was the setup of the attacking unit.

Ganso starts, leaving Lucho Acosta on the bench.
