The Cyclone hosts the Tricolor in a pivotal Group H clash on the fifth matchday, a game that could shape the path to the knockout rounds in the 2023 Copa Sudamericana.
San Lorenzo welcomes Palestino at the Pedro Bidegain Stadium for a Group H fixture that carries significant weight in the race for qualification. With the Cyclone three points behind the Tricolor in the standings, victory is essential for San Lorenzo to keep hopes alive of advancing in the continental tournament.
San Lorenzo arrives from a 3-2 defeat on the road against Fortaleza on the previous matchday. That result left them needing two wins and a little assistance elsewhere to stay in contention as the group stage progresses.
Palestino, on the other hand, comes off a commanding 5-1 win over Estudiantes de Mérida and carries strong momentum into this encounter. A win or even a draw in their remaining two matches could push the Chileans toward the next round, given their solid position in the standings and favorable tiebreakers.
This match marks the second-ever meeting between the two clubs in the tournament. Their first clash on the third matchday finished in a 0-0 draw in Santiago, underscoring a tightly contested duel with defensive resilience on both sides.
