Atletico Mineiro and San Lorenzo go head-to-head in the second leg of their Copa Libertadores round-of-16 clash on Tuesday. Having played out a 1-1 stalemate in last week’s reverse leg, a place in the quarter-finals remains up for the taking and we expect both sides to go all out at Arena MRV.
Atletico Mineiro were made to rue their wasteful display in front of goal as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Cuiaba in the Brasileiro Serie A on Saturday.
Gabriel Milito’s side have now been involved a share of the spoils in three consecutive games, including a 1-1 draw against San Lorenzo in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores round of 16 last Wednesday.
With the result against Cuiaba, Minerio have now gone unbeaten in five straight home matches across all competitions, picking up four wins and one draw since a 4-2 defeat against Flamengo on July 4.
Trending

Leandro Romagnoli’s men have picked up just seven points from their opening 10 games to sit 26th in the league standings, two points above rock-bottom Central Cordoba.
San Lorenzo head into Tuesday’s tie without a win in six back-to-back games, losing three and claiming three draws since a 1-0 victory over Gimnasia on July 23.
