Colo Colo will host Alianza Lima at the Monumental David Arellano on Wednesday in another round of the 2024 Copa Libertadores group-stage campaign.
The home side faced Cerro Porteno in their first group game earlier in the month, picking up a 1-0 victory via a late winner from Lucas Cepeda. However, they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Brasileirao Serie A outfit Fluminense in their second group game with a red card to Erick Wiemberg all but scuppering their chances of a positive result on the road.
Colo Colo sit second in the group table with three points from two matches. They are two points above their midweek opponents in last place and will be looking to widen that gap with a win on Wednesday.
Alianza Lima, meanwhile, kicked off their Copa Libertadores campaign with a 1-1 draw against Fluminense, with Kevin Sema opening the scoring late in the first half before their opponents drew level in the second. They then lost 1-0 to Cerro Porteno in their second match and had looked set to be headed toward another point before their opponents scored the winner at the death.
