Montevideo Wanderers will look to make it three back to back wins in the Copa Sudamericana when they welcome Barcelona SC to Estádio Parque Alfredo Víctor Viera in their final group stages fixture. Match day schedules for 02:15 EAT.
The hosts sit third spot on group standing with seven points from five matches. In their campaign they have picked up two wins against two draws and a loss. Montevideo Wanderers has a chance for getting into the Play offs, if they win here and if Lanus lose to the bottom side Metropolitanos, which itself seems highly unlikely.
Wanderers will look to pick up a third win on the bounce and secure a playoffs ticket, they have struggled to get going on home turf, where they have failed to taste victory in any of their last six outings, picking up four draws and losing two since March’s 2-1 win over Cerro Largo.
Barcelona SC is 2nd in Copa Sudamericana with 8 points from five games played. They won and drew twice while having lost on one other fixture. The Ecuador side is level on points with Lanus and it is due to the narrow goal difference of just one that made them to sit behind. The visiting side has now failed to win any of their last four outings across all competitions, picking up three draws and losing one since brushing aside Guayaquil City 4-1.
Ídolo del Ecuador heads into this meeting hoping to make amends for the 2-1 ProLiga losing effort to Aucas in their last game. In that match Barcelona SC managed 61% possession, 18 shots with three of them on target and a goal scored by Damian Diaz 53’P. Aucas got 16 shots with three of them on target and goals by Victor Figueroa 16’and Francisco Fydriszewski 45+5’P.
