Estudiantes and Corinthians prepare to clash in the quarter-finals of the Copa Libertadores at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi on Thursday. The previous meeting saw Estudiantes triumph 1-0. However, the teams have had mixed fortunes in their recent fixtures - Estudiantes lost 1-0 to Vélez Sarsfield in the Torneo Clausura 2026, while Corinthians lost 1-2 to Chapecoense in the Brasileirão Série A 2026.
Key factors to consider are the absences due to suspensions, injuries and illnesses. For Estudiantes, Hugo Souza is serving a suspension, Raniele is on a yellow card suspension, and key players like Vitinho (knee injury), André (muscle injury), Gabriel Paulista (knee injury) and Yuri Alberto (ligament tear) are unavailable. Corinthians are without Hugo Souza (suspension), Kayke Ferrari (collateral ligament tear), Vitinho (knee injury) and Gabriel (muscle injury).
Despite these challenges, both sides will be keen to secure progression in the competition. The outcome of this match could prove decisive in their respective campaigns.
