Velez Sarsfield team news

Vélez Sarsfield approach this match in strong form, having lost only one of their last eight matches in all competitions and winning a morale-boosting 2-1 victory over Independiente in their most recent Argentine league game. Defensively disciplined and organized, Vélez have been effective at home, unbeaten in their last six home matches, with a record built on a compact back line and reliable goalkeeping.

Recent performances have shown good squad rotation, and the likely starting eleven includes key contributors such as goalkeeper Burián, defenders Ortega and Giannetti, and attackers Carrizo and Tarragona.

Fortaleza team news

Fortaleza, meanwhile, are experiencing a difficult run, winless in their last five games across all competitions, including three defeats and two draws since late July. Their away form has been especially concerning - they have not won a game on the road since February, losing six of their last seven away fixtures.

Injury and inconsistency have hampered their goal output, but the fans will hope mainstays like Deyverson and Marinho can reverse their fortunes. Fortaleza will need greater attacking intent after managing just one shot on target in the first leg.
