The Copa Sudamericana round of 16 begins on Tuesday, with Club Libertad hosting Fortaleza at the Estadio Tigo La Huerta.

The Paraguayan club seek an outcome that puts them in good stead for the reverse fixture in Brazil next week.

The away side are Fortaleza, whose run to this stage in this season's Sudamericana has been commendable.

Juan Pablo Vojvoda's team have won five of six games (one defeat) en route to this stage, with the club's only loss coming in their penultimate group game against Estudiantes de Merida.

Libertad's current form means they are backed to triumph against out-of-sorts Fortaleza, who could start August as they ended July — with a defeat.

南美杯16强将于周二开始，自由俱乐部将在蒂戈拉韦尔塔球场迎战福塔莱萨。

巴拉圭俱乐部寻求一个结果，使他们在下周的巴西比赛中处于有利地位。

客场是福塔莱萨队，他们在本赛季南美杯上的表现值得称赞。

胡安·巴勃罗·伏伊伏达的球队在进入这个阶段的六场比赛中取得了五场胜利(一场失利)，俱乐部唯一的一场失利是在小组赛倒数第二场对阵梅里达学生队的比赛中。

自由塔德目前的状态意味着他们有可能战胜状态不佳的福塔莱萨，后者可能会在8月开始，就像他们在7月结束时一样——以失败告终。
