Nacional Montevideo vs Metropolitanos Lineups, Match Information, and Team News
Nacional Montevideo
One of the most famous clubs from Uruguay, Nacional is the current champion, but the team is disappointed that they haven't secured a last 16 place in Copa Libertadores thus far. They started the season with a couple of wins before failing to win any of their last three games. Francisco Ginella, Renzo Sanchez, and Emmanuel Gigliotti are injured for the home side.
Probable lineup: Rochet, Lozano, Noguera, Polenta, Candido, D. Rodriguez, Pereiro, Y. Rodriguez, Zabala, Martinez, Ramirez.
Metropolitanos
The Venezuelan team didn't expect to be in the running for a last 16 place, but the club management hoped that there will be some wins at least. That hasn't happened, and it is doubtful it will change during the last game of the group phase. Jose Moreno is suspended.
Probable lineup: Schiavone, Valderrey, Gruezo, Camarillo, Belisario, Vargas, Larotonda, Marchan, Gomez, Ortiz, Bareiro.
Player to Watch: Diego Zabala
The 31-year-old wing player has been an essential player for Nacional this season playing in the starting lineup for most of the season. The Uruguayan league has just started and Zabala has produced assists thus far in three matches played. During Copa Libertadores, he has played in every game scoring a goal while also assisting on a single occasion.
Zabala has played in Argentina for a while and joined Nacional last year when his contract with Rosario Central expired. His career stats recognize his talent as a goal scorer, but also as the creator of chances. He has accumulated 46 goals and 47 assists while playing in 339 games.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
