Overview
- The second leg is scheduled at Nubank Parque in São Paulo on Wednesday, Oct. 21, and Palmeiras enter with a 2-1 first-leg lead so a draw will send them through.
- Under CONMEBOL rules that eliminated away goals, Fluminense must win by two or more goals to qualify outright while a one-goal victory would take the tie to penalties.
- Palmeiras coach Abel Ferreira returns to the bench after serving a suspension and Gustavo Gómez is available, but Palmeiras will be without Vitor Roque and Jefté; Fluminense carries several injury doubts including John Kennedy and Germán Cano.
- Esteban Ostojich is the appointed referee and the match will be shown across major sports platforms such as ESPN and Disney+ with bookmakers listing Palmeiras as the favorite.
- The venue gives Palmeiras a clear edge given its strong home record and a Palmeiras win or Fluminense comeback will determine who takes the first ticket to the Nov. 28 final at Estadio Centenario in Montevideo.
