It will undoubtedly be one of the most interesting games on Wednesday, May 4, since it could be the last chance that both teams have to fight for a place in the round of 16 Copa Libertadores. If one of the two loses, they will almost certainly have to settle for fighting for third place, which would allow them to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana.
Both teams will have to be aware of what Cerro Porteño and Colon do, since their future will depend on that. A tie, in principle, would leave Peñarol somewhat better, although a victory for “Zabalero” would greatly complicate things for the Uruguayans in the face of that hypothetical tie. In the case of Olimpia, it only serves them to win, regardless of what happens in the other game in the group.
