The final stretch of the group stage in the Copa Libertadores 2022 is coming to an end this week, when the penultimate day is played that in several groups will outline the two classified to the round of 16.
This Wednesday, May 18 (5:00 p.m.) Emelec will have its toughest visit so far in the tournament, when in Sao Paulo they try to get points against the local Palmeiras, current two-time champion of the tournament, undefeated leader of the group and with 20 goals scored in four games.
El Bombillo arrives with the background of the 1-4 win against Táchira in Venezuela, a result that pushed him to the second seat of his key, but he will also be aware of what happens in San Cristóbal, two hours later, where the Venezuelans will receive the Bolivian bottom-runner Independiente Petrolero.
A defeat of Emelec with a victory of Táchira, will make the llaneros go up to the second seat, so that everything will be defined next week with El Bombillo receiving Independiente and the Venezuelans visiting Palmeiras.
If Emelec manages to get a tie in Sao Paulo, it should still be possible for Independiente to take points from Táchira, since it would put the pressure on the Venezuelans on the last date, who would have to score against Palmeiras in the same scenario today.
