Atletico Paranaense take on the visitors Libertad Asuncion in the round 5 match of Copa Libertadores group stage. The match will be played on Thursday, May 19th at Arena da Baixada (Curitiba).
Atlético Paranaense is not having its best season so far. "Hurricane" only once won the championship of their country. But lately the team manages to please their fans quite often in other tournaments. Last season, it was already the 2nd time in history when they managed to win the Copa Sudamericana. This made it possible to play in the Cope Sudamericana despite very modest results in Brasileirao (14th place in 2021). Now, too, in the domestic championship, the start turned out to be quite modest. But this time and in the Cope Libertadores, little is being done. The Brazilians got off to a good start, taking 4 points in the first rounds, after which it was 0-1 with Libertad and even 0-5 with Strongest.

Libertad (Asuncion) is the most titled team in Paraguay, and does not intend to stop there. "Los Repolleros" in the last drawing of Primera took another championship title, already the 21st in history. And now they are moving quite confidently to the next “gold” in Paraguay. At the same time, it turns out to lead thier own, not the easiest, group in the Cope Libertadores. In the first round, Libertad managed to score 7 points (a draw with the Strongest in victories over Caracas and Atlético Paranaense). But in the last round, in Venezuela, the club from Asuncion lost. And now the picture in the group is quite confusing - yes, it is the Paraguayans who manage to keep the 1st place in the standings of the quartet. But at the same time, if they lose now, then “Hurricane”, which now holds the 4th position, will be able to catch up with its opponent, and this is before the last round!
Before this confrontation, the clubs crossed paths only once, in the spring of 2005. Then the Brazilians had no problems: Atletico Paranaense took victories in both matches. Atlético Paranaense is playing at home and must make the most of this advantage. We recommend betting that the Brazilians will be able to beat Libertad at home
Prediction for the match: Atletico Paranaense to win.
