Cordoba SdE and Deportivo Tachira will trade tackles in a Copa Libertadores clash on Thursday (April 24th). The game will be played at Estadio Unico de Ciudades.
The hosts will be looking to bounce back from the 1-0 defeat they suffered away to Racing Club in the Argentine Torneo Betano. They went behind to Bruno Zuculini's 45th-minute strike and were handed a lifeline when they were awarded a penalty in the 64th minute but Leonardo Heredia missed from 12 yards.
Tachira, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a 4-0 home thrashing of Yaracuynos in the Peruvian Liga FUTVE. Carlos Caldazilla scored a first-half brace, with his goals coming either side of Maurice Cova's 25th-minute strike. Jean Castillo stepped off the bench to complete the rout with 16 minutes left on the clock.
