How to watch today's Athletico Paranaense vs Racing Copa Sudamericana game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

The 2024 Copa Sudamericana quarter-finals wrap up on Thursday as Athletico Paranaense welcomes Racing Club to Arena de Baixada.

In the last round, the Brazilian side cruised past Belgrano with a 4-1 aggregate win, while Racing Club, also known as El Primer Grande, made light work of Huachipato, dispatching them with an emphatic 8-1 aggregate score.

The hosts have bounced back well after a shaky finish to their Sudamericana group stage, staying unbeaten in all four knockout matches following two consecutive group-stage losses.

In the previous two Sudamericana tournaments, aside from this one, Paranaense have only suffered a single knockout round defeat—a narrow 1-0 loss to LDU Quito in the first leg of their quarter-final clash. However, they still advanced 4-3 on aggregate and went on to claim the title for the second time that same year.

Heading into the second leg with a comfortable two-goal lead, the visitors made sure there was no room for doubt, securing a dominant 6-1 victory in Argentina last August.

This emphatic win has propelled them into the quarter-finals of the Copa Sudamericana for the first time since 2017, when they were knocked out by Libertad with a 4-1 aggregate score.
