Wilster goes for the pass against a Guabirá that dreams of the feat

  Wilstermann will seek to seal its qualification to the group stage of the Copa Sudamericana today (20:30), aware that the 4-0 difference from the first leg gives it an advantage, but does not yet give it the ticket, as Guabirá will try to achieve the feat at the Gilberto Parada stadium in Montero.

"The key is not closed. We must play this match as if it were the first leg", were the words of Wilstermann's technical director, Miguel Ponce, to make it clear that there are still 90 minutes left to ensure the qualification to the group stage and to get the prize of 900 thousand dollars that will give economic stability to the club.

Meanwhile, in Guabirá the motto is "he who fights is not dead". Luis Enrique Hurtado, one of the captains of the Azucarero, said that it is true that "the disadvantage is high, but that does not take away our dream of qualifying, so we will fight from the first minute of the match".

In Wilstermann it is almost a fact that the Chilean tactician will not change the game plan or the starting eleven with which he achieved a 4-0 victory in the first leg, played at the Félix Capriles stadium.

Ponce will have his full potential at his disposal, after he decided to take care of some players who had some muscular fatigue and did not want to risk them in the Cochabamba derby, a match in which Aurora beat Wilstermann 1-0.

In the previous days, the Aviator could not work normally in its complex of the Alalay lagoon due to the heavy rains that were registered in Cochabamba. It was precisely because of this issue that the team brought forward the trip to Santa Cruz to midday yesterday to be able to work in the afternoon on Santa Cruz soil.

In Guabirá, the defeat suffered in Cochabamba for the Sudamericana, added to the bad results in the local tournament (two draws in five matches), caused the departure of coach Víctor Hugo "Tucho" Antelo and his place was taken by Mauricio Soria, who took the reins of the team this Monday.

Without much time to work, Soria will probably decide not to make many changes in the team for the second leg, although it was announced from Montero that one possible change could be the entry of Gustavo Peredo to replace Hurtado.

Guabirá is aware that only a 5-0 victory could give them direct qualification. A 4-0 victory will take the ticket to penalties.

A Guabirá win by a difference of less than 4 goals will give Wilstermann the qualification.
