Colon Santa FE take on the visitors Olimpia Asuncion in the round 5 match of Copa Libertadores group stage.
The match will be played on Thursday, May 19th at Estadio Brigadier General Estanislao López (Santa Fe)
Colón can secure a playoff spot. "Los Sabaleros" has little to boast of - they played once in the final of the Cope Sudamericana, in 2019, and at the end of the last century it turned out to finish in 2nd place in the national league. So winning the 2021 Pro League Cup (named after Diego Maradona) can be considered a real peak in his history. But so far nothing has been successful at this level, the results are quite mediocre. Against this background, in the Cope Libertadores, the interim results are quite decent - they won against Peñarol and Cerro Porteño, and gained 7 points. If they win now, then the passage will be guaranteed by 95-99 percent - then it will be necessary not to lose in the last round.

Olimpia (Asuncion) is holding up well, but he is clearly not at his peak right now. "Dean" became the champion of the country 45 times, including in Clausura-2020. Also, the representative of Paraguay won the Copa Libertadores three times. But the recent results are not impressive - in last year's Clausura there was only 8th place, by the standards of this team, this is a complete failure. Now, by the way, there is also a noticeable lag behind his main enemy, Cerro Porteño, and Libertad have gone ahead, which looks simply unattainable. But at the same time, Olimpia gradually managed to get in shape by mid-May. But in the Cope Libertadores, having first gone through 3 rounds of the playoffs, including having won back a 2-goal defeat from Fluminense, the Paraguayans showed a mediocre intermediate result.
The sides played each other for the first time in April. Then everything in Asuncion ended in a "zero" draw. The alignment for the fight in Santa Fe is very simple: the hosts are in good shape and need a win to close the issue of reaching the playoffs. We recommend betting on the victory of Colon.
Prediction for the match: Colon to win.
