Athletico Paranaense take on the visitors Libertad Asuncion in round 5 match of Copa Libertadores group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 7th at Arena da Baixada (Curitiba).
Athletico Paranaense want to achieve success in this tournament as well. "Hurricane" was the champion of Brazil in the early 2000s. In 2018 and 2021, they also won the Copa Sudamericana. Additionally, they reached the final of the Copa Libertadores twice, including last season, but finished in 6th place in the national Serie A. Currently, their domestic results are even more modest. However, they are leading their group in the Copa, albeit with a caveat: after earning 7 points in the first round, the ambitious team lost 1-2 to their fellow countrymen and almost namesakes, Atletico Mineiro.

Libertad (Asuncion), by losing, risk failing to advance to the playoffs. "Los Repolleros" is one of the strongest clubs in their country. They have confirmed this status this year by winning the Paraguayan Apertura. This is their third consecutive victory, and the number of "golden" medals has now reached 23. However, in the Copa Libertadores, they have only reached the semifinals twice, most recently in 2006. Currently, the team has a unique statistic: they have lost both home matches but managed to secure decisive 2-1 victories away against Atletico Mineiro and Alianza Lima. This at least allows them to have decent chances of qualifying for the playoffs.
A total of 7 matches have been played, and Libertad has only managed to win once. Athletico Paranaense has 5 victories, including this season. If Libertad lost 1-2 to the Brazilians at home, their chances are even lower now. We recommend betting on Athletico Paranaense to win the duel once again.
Prediction for the match: Athletico Paranaense to win.
