Estudiantes host Flamengo in the Copa Libertadores, with Alexander Medina's side looking to press their advantage in Group A against a Brazilian opponent who arrives with momentum from a strong run in the Serie A.
Estudiantes come into this fixture having drawn their last Liga Profesional outing 2-2 with Central Cordoba de Santiago, a result that followed a convincing 3-0 win over Gimnasia Mendoza. Their Copa Libertadores form has been sharp, with a 1-0 win at Corinthians among the standout results in their recent run.
Flamengo arrive having won their last Serie A match 1-0 against Fluminense in a Rio derby, a result that keeps Leonardo Jardim's side top of the Brazilian top flight. That win came after a 2-2 draw with Santos, in which Neymar came off the bench to score twice from the spot and deny Flamengo back-to-back victories.
The two clubs know each other well in this competition. Their Copa Libertadores meetings have produced tight margins, and Flamengo will travel with confidence having won the most recent encounter between the sides.
For Estudiantes, this is a chance to assert themselves at the top of the group on home soil. Medina's squad are balancing domestic and continental commitments, but their quality across competitions makes them a genuine threat.

Form
Estudiantes head into this fixture with two wins, two losses, and one draw from their last five competitive matches. Their most recent outing ended 2-2 against Central Cordoba de Santiago in the Liga Profesional, while a 3-0 win over Gimnasia Mendoza earlier in the run shows their attacking output. A 1-0 Copa Argentina defeat to Club Atletico Platense is the low point of that sequence. Across those five matches, Estudiantes scored seven goals and conceded four.
Flamengo have won three, drawn one, and lost one of their last five outings. Their most recent result was a 1-0 Serie A win over Fluminense, and a 2-1 victory over Red Bull Bragantino earlier in the run reflects their domestic consistency. The one dropped point came in a 2-2 draw with Santos. Flamengo scored six goals and conceded four across those five matches.
Head-to-Head Record
The most recent meeting between these clubs ended 1-0 to Flamengo in a Copa Libertadores fixture played in May 2026. Across the last four recorded encounters in the competition, Flamengo have won two, Estudiantes one, and one match ended level, with the sides having met twice in both the 2025 and 2026 editions of the Copa Libertadores.
Standings
In Copa Libertadores Group A, Flamengo currently sit first while Estudiantes are second, making this a direct contest between the top two sides in the group.
