Fortaleza team news
Fortaleza enter the match on a concerning run of form, winless in their last seven matches across all competitions, with four consecutive draws. Their latest outing was a goalless stalemate with Sao Paulo in the Brazilian Serie A.
The squad is dealing with several injury concerns: Diogo Barbosa and Emanuel Britez are sidelined with sprained ankles, Moises Vieira is out with a thigh problem, Pedro Augusto remains unavailable due to a groin issue, and Tinga is still recovering from an ankle injury.
Defender Gustavo Mancha is also a doubt after picking up a knock in the draw with Sao Paulo. Despite these setbacks, Fortaleza will look to leverage home advantage and their defensive resilience to break their winless streak and keep their Libertadores campaign alive.
Colo Colo team news
Colo Colo’s campaign has been equally troubled, with just one win in their last seven matches across all competitions and a recent 1-0 defeat to Deportes Limache in the Chilean Primera División. The club is also reeling from the impact of the tragic events in the previous fixture against Fortaleza, which led to a five-match behind-closed-doors sanction and a fine from CONMEBOL.
Head coach Jorge Almiron is under pressure, and the team will be without forward Alexander Oroz due to physical discomfort. Colo Colo’s attacking options are limited, and they will need to find a way to break down a stubborn Fortaleza defense if they are to revive their hopes of advancing in the competition
