Ecuadorian side Barcelona SC is eyeing an upset in the Copa Libertadores quarter finals in preparation to host Brazilian side Fluminense in the return leg of the tie. The tie is currently poised at 2-2 from the first leg, in which Barcelona were seconds from a crucial win. Going into this game Barcelona are without a win in the last two matches, the first being a draw with Fluminense in Brazil. They suffered a 1-0 loss to Orense in their domestic league but they will definitely put more effort here. They’ve earlier met twice with Fluminense and won one then drew the other; they will be keen on keeping that unbeaten run going. Their scoring run is impressive, with two goals in each of four of the last five matches but in this game they will miss one of their key attackers, in Leandro Martinez. The forward is suspended after being sent off in the first leg. They have a very strong run at home – four straight wins and scoring at least two goals in each of them. In their last 26 home matches, Barcelona have suffered just one loss.

Fluminense are in danger of elimination from the quarter finals which are dominated by Brazilian sides. They have no clean sheet in the last three matches and have conceded two or more in two of them. It hasn’t been a great season for Fluminense even in the Serie A back at home, and they head to this game from a 4-2 loss to Internacional, which left them 15th in the league standings. It doesn’t make anything easier that in the last four away matches, Fluminense have straight losses. They’ve failed to score in two of those four away matches, and conceded two goals or more in two of them

厄瓜多尔巴塞罗那队在南美解放者杯四分之一决赛中遭遇意外，准备在第二回合主场迎战巴西球队弗卢米嫩塞。在第一回合的比赛中，双方战成2-2平，巴塞罗那在最后几秒就取得了关键的胜利。在这场比赛中，巴萨在过去两场比赛中都没有取得一场胜利，第一场是在巴西与弗卢米嫩塞打平。他们在国内联赛中0 - 1输给了奥伦斯，但他们肯定会在这里付出更多的努力。他们曾两次与弗卢米嫩塞交手，一次获胜，另一次平局;他们将热衷于保持不败战绩。他们的进球数令人印象深刻，在最近的五场比赛中，四场都进了两个球，但在这场比赛中，他们将失去他们的关键攻击者之一，莱安德罗·马丁内斯。这名前锋在第一回合被罚下后被禁赛。他们在主场的表现非常强劲——四连胜，每场至少进两球。在过去的26场主场比赛中，巴萨只输了一场。

弗卢米嫩塞有可能在四分之一决赛中被巴西球队淘汰。他们在最近三场比赛中没有失球，在其中两场比赛中至少丢了两球。对于弗卢米尼塞来说，即使是在意甲主场，这个赛季也不是个好赛季，他们在4-2负于国际米兰之后，在联赛积分榜上排名第15。在过去的四场客场比赛中，弗卢米嫩塞连败，这并没有让任何事情变得更容易。在这四场客场比赛中，他们有两场没有进球，其中两场甚至丢了两个球
