Barracas Central

Olimpia Asuncion

- His side has won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five games, a poor run of form that has seen the side sit third in the group with four points from their first three games.
Head-to-Head
- There’s an air of déjà vu about this fixture that sees Barracas Central host Olimpia Asuncion again in the Copa Sudamericana Group G on Thursday.
- Just two weeks ago the pair drew a tight game 0-0 in Paraguay and it could be a similar story in Buenos Aires.
Key Players
Rodrigo Bogarin, who has scored one goal in his only appearance in the Copa Sudamericana for Barracas, is their most trusted goal threat, but Juan Alfaro has scored as many goals in three appearances for Olimpia.
