Libertadores: Fluminense face Platense as first semi-final spot is decided today | OneFootball

Fluminense visit Platense on Tuesday for a Copa Libertadores quarter-final second leg that will decide the first semi-final place.

Coluna Do Fla reports on the tie. Fluminense won the first leg 2-0 at the Maracanã, so the visitors can lose by one goal and still progress. If the aggregate is level, the tie will be settled by penalties.

The Brazilian side are coming off a 3-1 defeat at Atlético-MG in the league on Saturday 12. It was Marcão’s first loss as coach, after he rested his regular starters and began in Belo Horizonte with a fully rotated side.

Platense also rotated ahead of this clash. On Saturday 12, Martín Palermo’s team lost 2-1 to Estudiantes in the Argentine league. Palermo is a former Fortaleza coach and a Boca Juniors idol.

Kick-off is 19:00 Brasília time at the Estadio Ciudad de Vicente López in Argentina, and Disney+ will stream the match.
