Estudiantes de La Plata will host Gremio at the Estadio Ciudad de La Plata on Wednesday in another round of the 2024 Copa Libertadores group stage campaign.
The home side are enjoying a strong run of form at the moment and will be looking to carry that momentum onto the continental stage this week. They played out a 1-1 draw against Chilean outfit Huachipato in their group opener earlier in the month before beating The Strongest 2-1 in their second match, with Guido Carillo and Edwuin Cetre getting on the scoresheet in the second half to help overturn a first-half deficit.
Estudiantes de La Plata sit second in the group table with four points from an obtainable six and will be looking to add to that tally when they play on Wednesday.
Gremio, meanwhile, have failed to come alive on the continental stage this season despite their positive performances in the Brasileirao Serie A. They were beaten 2-0 by The Strongest in their first group game before losing by the same scoreline to Huachipato in their second match. They perhaps deserved more from the latter but were guilty of grossly wasteful finishing.
