Cruzeiro welcome Palestino to the Estádio Governador Magalhaes Pinto this Wednesday for a dead-rubber Copa Sudamericana Group E showdown.
The visitors, comfortably perched in second place with nine points, have already punched their ticket to the Round of 16 and can't climb any higher, with Mushac Rana sitting firmly atop the table, four points ahead. On the other side, the hosts will aim to salvage some pride and end a forgettable campaign on a positive note, having managed just a solitary point from their four outings so far.
The Brazilian side will be brimming with confidence after steamrolling Sport 4-0 in their latest Serie A outing — a dominant display that showcased their attacking flair and defensive discipline.
Meanwhile, Palestino arrive on the back of a more balanced contest, having been held to a 2-2 draw by Audax Italiano in Copa Chile action. They'll be looking to tighten up at the back if they hope to walk away from Belo Horizonte with something to show for it.

Cruzeiro team news
Cruzeiro have a few names stuck in the treatment room as the season heats up. Matheus Henrique is nursing a meniscus issue and is expected to be sidelined until early June, just missing a crucial stretch of fixtures. Joao Marcelo remains a long-term absentee with a knee injury, with a projected return no earlier than October.
Meanwhile, Japa is battling inflammation in his thigh tendon; no official timeline yet, but he's unlikely to feature until the medical team clears him for full training.
Palestino team news
Palestino will be without a few key names heading into their next clash, as injuries continue to thin their ranks. Jose Bizama is ruled out with an ankle problem, while fellow defender Dilan Zuniga is nursing edema. Up front, Facundo Castro remains out of action due to a muscle strain, leaving the squad a little short on both ends of the pitch.
