On Thursday, the elimination round matches in the Copa Sudamericana will continue with Rosario Central and Fortaleza battling it out for a change at the last 8 of the Prestigious Copa Sudamericana. Rosario Central qualified for the last 16 after they defeated Internacional with a 1-2 aggregate. Fortaleza on the other hand finished top of Group D and we are eager to see how the first-leg pans out at the Gigante de Arroyito on Thursday. Please see the carefully prepared tips.
Rosario Central
Rosario Central has lost 3 games from the ten league games they’ve played this season with an overall record of 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses. Rosario Central couldn’t qualify for the knockout round of the Libertadores as they finished third and couldn’t qualify for the Round of 16, but their third place earned them a spot in the Round of 32 or the Copa Sudamericana where they proved themselves by defeating Internacional with a 1-2 aggregate. Their first-leg encounter against Internacional ended in a 1-0 narrow victory while the return leg ended in a 1-1 draw. Rosario Central looks good in terms of recent form as they’ve won their last two league games.
Fortaleza
Fortaleza finished top of Group D in the Copa Sudamericana with a record of 4 wins, a draw, and a loss from the 6 games played in the group stage games. Fortaleza has been in outstanding form since then as they are currently in second place in the Brasileiro Serie A with only a point behind current league leaders Botafogo. Fortaleza has not lost a league game in their last 8 league games with 7 victories and a draw.
Expert Betting Tips
Both teams are in good form but Fortaleza seems to be on fire at the moment and we side with Fortaleza for a positive outcome in this game.
