This game is essentially a shootout for the third place in this teams’group as they are both on their way out.<\/p>\n
The home side would be looking to take the third spot as consolation for a truly dismal campaign, that’s the same thing that would be on the minds of their visitors here too.<\/p>\n
Universidad won the reverse of this fixture as the opening match of this competition this season, but a lot has changed since that time and their 6-1 loss to\u00a0Union La Calera and their 7-0 loss o Cruzeiro shows have bad they have been, with both results costing\u00a0Guillermo Hoyos his job.<\/p>\n
The hosts need to avoid defeat to finish third in the group as they have a 3 points lead over their visitors, however, confidence is low in their camp and the Brazilians could get their revenge here.<\/p>\n
The visitors are now also in the best of form at the moment, but they would be confident ahead of this game after they managed to pick a point in their last game against archrivals Flamengo.<\/p>\n
There is also internal hostility in the club, and players who would take to the field in this game would be looking to raise spirits around the club in this game. Vasco da Gama need to win this game by more than one goal to leapfrog their opponents in this game.<\/p>\n
Prior to Universidad’s 1-0 win away at Vasco earlier on in the group, the sides hadn’t met since a 2011 Sudamericana clash which the Chileans won 3-1 on aggregate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
