Estudiantes and Flamengo lock horns against each other this Thursday at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi for the second leg of the Copa Libertadores quarter-finals.
The first leg of the CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores quarter-final delivered plenty of drama as Flamengo edged Estudiantes 2-1 at the Maracana in Rio.
Pedro and Guillermo Varela put the hosts ahead, but an 82nd-minute red card for Gonzalo Plata shifted the momentum. A late own goal from Leo Pereira handed Estudiantes a lifeline as they head back to Argentina for the second leg, setting up an intriguing return clash.
Since that setback, Estudiantes bounced back in domestic action, grinding out a hard-fought win over Defensa y Justicia in the Argentine Primera Division. Flamengo, meanwhile, have continued to cement themselves as one of South America's elite sides over the past year, blending attacking flair with defensive resilience.
