Independiente will conclude their Copa Sudamericana group-stage campaign at the Estadio Libertadores de América against Nacional Potosi on Wednesday. This is a crucial match for both teams as the top spot in the Group A table is still up for grabs.
El Rojo met Club Guaraní in their previous Sudamericana outing and registered a 1-0 home win. Their winning streak in all competitions ended after four games last week as they lost 6-5 on penalties to Huracan in the Argentine Primera División first phase semifinals.
Potosi returned to winning ways after three games in the Sudamericana earlier this month, recording a 3-0 home win over Boston River. They met Blooming in the Bolivian Primera División last week and were held to a goalless draw.
