Belgrano (Argentina) – Real Tomayapo (Bolivia)

Belgrano wasted a big chance in their last Copa Sudamericana commitment, settling for an unexpected 1-1 home stalemate against Delfin SC. However, El Pirata remain as group C leaders on six points, one above their last opponents and SC Internacional (who hold one game in hand). On Sunday, Juan Cruz Real’s men drew 4-4 against Racing Club at home in the Liga Profesional opener. Overall, the team succumbed to a single defeat across their last eight competitive matches, winning three and drawing four. On a sorry note, Belgrano are winless in the last seven as the hosting side (five stalemates and two losses).

Meanwhile, CD Real Tomayapo are almost out of the fight to advance to the Copa Sudamericana next round. They had their home game against SC Internacional in round four postponed, which left them bottom-placed in group C on a single point, four behind second-placed Delfin SC. However, El Verde beat Gualberto Villarroel San Jose 2-0 at home in the Torneo Clausura opener in league action. As a result, they lost only one of the last four in all competitions (2-0 to Belgrano as hosts), winning two and drawing one. On away turf, Tomayapo are winless in the last four, with two stalemates and two losses in that spell.

Belgrano must win here because their last game will be at Brazil vs Internacional in the toughest game of the group. They are playing against the arguably worst team of this competition, that has 0 goals scored and one point in 4 games, so an easy home win should be expected.
