Metropolitanos and Independiente Medellin are back in action in the Copa Libertadores when they go head to head at the UCV Olympic Stadium in Group B on Thursday.
Having lost each of their four matches so far, the home side will be playing just for pride, while the visitors could move into first place with all three points.
We say: Metropolitanos 0-2 Independiente Medellin
While Independiente Medellin have struggled for results in recent weeks, they will be backing themselves to see off an inexperienced Metropolitanos side who have lost all four games so far. We predict the visitors will pick up a third consecutive group win and edge closer to the knockout stages.

Reigning Copa Libertadores champions Flamengo will be looking to get their title defence back on track when they take on Racing Club on Friday morning.
While the Argentine outfit boasts a healthy five-point lead at the top of Group A, the hosts need a win to keep their hopes of reaching the knockout stages alive.
We say: Flamengo 2-1 Racing Club
Following Tuesday's victory, Flamengo have now gone eight consecutive games without defeat, picking up five wins and three draws. While Racing Club are also in fine form, Sampaoli's side have home advantage in their favour and we fancy them picking up all three points.

Aiming to pick up back to back wins for the first time since April, Olimpia welcome Atletico Nacional to Estadio Manuel Ferreira on Friday in matchday five of the 2022-23 Copa Libertadores group-stage campaign.
The home side are looking to confirm their place in the knockout phase, while the visitors can afford take their foot off the gas a bit having got the job done last time out.
We say: Olimpia 2-1 Atletico Nacional
The onus is largely on Olimpia to make home advantage count and confirm their place in the knockout round, so we expect them to be fully up for this one. We can also see the hosts emerging victorious come the end of the 90 minutes.
