River Plate did a solid group stage in Copa Libertadores with 5 wins and 1 draw with the amazing record of 18 goals scored. They have an amazing team this season and in my opinion even after losing the first leg by 1-0 they are still the main favorites to win the competition, in the Argentina league they are in the 12th position, but only with 6 points fewer than Gimnasia de La Plata. Since 2016 that River Plate did not lose a two-leg match for Copa Libertadores (lost now against Velez as away). They have an amazing coach Marcelo Gallardo, one of the best coaches from South America and who will jump very soon to Europe with some of his players, his teams play with a very high pace, very aggressive in tiki-taka mixed with gegenpressing. The individual quality of River Plate is very high, and have the 2 best players of the whole competition - Julian Alvarez, the 2nd topscorer of the competition with 6 goals scored, one fewer than Rafael Navarro from Palmeiras. He is an amazing striker, very intelligent and technically evolved will join Manchester City after this Copa Libertadores. The same will happen with the midfielder Enzo Fernandez who will join Benfica after Libertadores, was one of the biggest signs of Benfica's history by 18 million EUROS by 75% of the pass. Another very good player is Elias Gomez who leads the competition in terms of assists. At home in Estadio Monumental de Nuñez they are very strong and are one of the best teams in the world playing at home, the quality of River Plate collectively and individually is much superior than Velez Sarsfield and so I cannot see a different result other than the victory of River Plate. Plus, they rested the most important players in their last game for the League against Huracan.

Probable line-up: Armani; Casco - Martinez - Diaz - Mammana; Enzo Perez - Palavecino - Paradela - Enzo Fernandez; Julian Alvarez and Beltran.

Velez will try to reach the quarter-finals for the first time since 2012 after beating River Plate in the 1st leg by 1-0 and could have won by more goals as they created many chances, but the goalkeeper Armani did an amazing game. Defensively they are a bad team in my opinion, they were the team that conceded most goals of any team that advanced into the knockout stage this year. The goalkeeper Lucas Hoyos stopped 4 clear goal chances versus River. In their national league they are in the 22th place, doing a bad season internally, and I do not expect them to hold this strong River Plate with 2 world class players - Julian Alvarez and Enzo Fernandez.

Probable line -up: Hoyos; Jara - De Los Santos - Gomez - Ortega; Orellano - Garayalde - Perrone - Janson; Pratto and Castro.

河床队在解放者杯小组赛中取得了5胜1平的成绩，并取得了18球的惊人成绩。他们本赛季拥有一支神奇的球队，在我看来，即使在首回合0 - 1输掉比赛后，他们仍然是夺冠的主要希望，在阿根廷联赛中他们排名第12位，但只比德拉普拉塔少6分。自2016年以来，河床队在解放者杯两回合比赛中没有输球(现在客场输给了贝莱斯)。他们有一个了不起的教练马塞洛·加拉多，他是南美最好的教练之一，他很快就会带着他的一些球员去欧洲，他的球队踢得非常快，在提基塔卡中非常有侵略性，混合着gegenpressing。河床队的个人素质非常高，有两名全队最好的球员——阿尔瓦雷兹，他以6粒进球排名射手榜第二，比来自帕尔梅拉斯的纳瓦罗少1球。他是一名令人惊叹的前锋，非常聪明，技术很好，将在这次解放者杯后加盟曼城。同样的情况也会发生在中场球员恩佐·费尔南德斯，他将在解放者队之后加盟本菲卡，解放者队是本菲卡历史上最大的标志之一，以1800万欧元的75%的传球优势。另一位非常优秀的球员是埃利亚斯·戈麦斯，他的助攻数在比赛中排名第一。在Nuñez纪念球场的主场，他们非常强大，是世界上最好的球队之一，河床队的整体和个人素质都比萨斯菲尔德高，所以我看不到除了河床队的胜利之外还有什么不同的结果。另外，他们在上一场对阵胡拉坎的比赛中让最重要的球员休息。

自从2012年首回合1-0击败河床队后，贝莱斯将试图第一次进入1 / 4决赛，因为他们创造了很多机会，本可以赢得更多的球，但门将阿玛尼在比赛中表现惊人。在我看来，他们的防守是一支糟糕的球队，他们是今年所有进入淘汰赛的球队中丢球最多的球队。在对阵河床队的比赛中，守门员卢卡斯·霍尤斯错失了4次净胜球机会。在他们的国家联赛中，他们排在第22位，本赛季的内线表现很糟糕，我不期望他们能以两名世界级球员——朱利安·阿尔瓦雷斯和恩佐·费尔南德斯——来保持强大的河床。
