Argentine side San Lorenzo will host Brazilian outfit Palmeiras in the Copa Libertadores group F opener at Estadio Pedro Bidegain on Wednesday night.
Group F is considered the "group of death" in this year's Copa Libertadores. As well as San Lorenzo and Palmeiras, the group features Independiente del Valle from Ecuador and Liverpool from Uruguay.
The Cyclone are not faring well in the Argentina top-flight this season. They sit in ninth place in Group B, five points off the qualifying positions for the next stage of the competition, while they lost the derby with Boca Juniors 2-1 at the La Bombonera last time out.
The Verdão, on the other hand, are the reigning Brazilian Serie A champions, and are among the favourites to lift this year's Copa Libertadores. The São Paulo-based club won the competition twice in recent years, in 2020 and 2021, and will be looking to add a fourth trophy this time around.
