by Tyler Doty in Copa Libertadores Picks
The equation is simple for Sao Paulo, who must overcome a two-goal deficit at their Do MorumBIS stadium to have any hope of qualifying for the Copa Libertadores semifinals. Currently seventh in Serie A Betano, the team is in poor form, with three defeats in its last four games at Cruzeiro (1-0), away to LDU Quito (2-0) and at Santos (1-0) on September 22. Sao Paulo has won its last seven home games, including three recent victories against Atl. Nacional (2-1 a.e.t. on penalties) in the Copa Libertadores, Atletico-MG (2-0) and Botafogo RJ (1-0) in the Brazilian championship. Unbeaten at home in this international competition, Sao Paulo must win by at least two goals to avoid elimination!
LDU Quito lost at home on Sunday to U.Catolica (2-4) in the 29th round of the Liga Pro. Qualified for the final stages of the Ecuadorian championship after securing a place in the Top 6, LDU Quito will defend its 2-goal advantage in the second leg against Sao Paulo. After a shaky run of away form in recent weeks, with three defeats in four trips to Aucas (1-0), Botafogo RJ (1-0) and El Nacional (1-0), Tiago Nunes' side will need to be cautious at the Estadio Do MorumBIS
