Sporting Cristal will receive Emelec on Wednesday, for the play-offs of the Copa Sudamericana. The Peruvian team reached this stage, after finishing in third place in Group D in the Copa Libertadores, an opportunity that they want to take advantage of to continue competing at the international level. Currently, the 'celestes' have accumulated fifteen unbeaten matches and hope to maintain the streak, especially with a victory that gives them some peace of mind when they have to go to Ecuador for the return leg. However, they must not get overconfident. Although the Ecuadorian team is not going through their best moment (finished the first half of the league just two points above the relegation zone), they are one of the giants of their country and, therefore, they will know how to fight.
