📋 Who faces Fluminense? Palmeiras XI named in Quito vs LDU

Palmeiras has been named to face LDU in the second leg of the Copa Libertadores quarter-finals. The match will take place at Estadio Rodrigo Paz Delgado in Quito at 7 p.m. (Brasília time). The teams will be competing for a chance to advance to the final, with a potential prize of 2.3 million dollars on the line. Palmeiras will be without Gustavo Gómez, who is suspended, but will have key players returning such as Andreas Pereira, Mauricio, and Sosa.

LDU, on the other hand, will be without Gustavo Álvarez, who received his third yellow card in the first leg. The match situation is crucial, as a draw would give Verdão an advantage and advance the tie to penalties. A one-goal victory will also send the tie to penalties. The team that advances from this tie will host the second leg against Fluminense. The last knockout tie between the two teams was a loss for LDU in Quito last year.
