In the first leg of the Copa Libertadores Round of 8, Paranhos hosts Students. Although Paranhos has not been doing well in the league recently, they have been playing well in the Copa Libertadores, and they have won all of their last four Copa Libertadores home matches, so a home win is worth pursuing. (Live on TVB myTV Super at 8:30am on Friday)
Paranhos is coached by renowned coach Scolari, who can be said to be a Cup expert, having led Brazil to win the 2002 World Cup and 2013 Intercontinental Cup of Nations, and assisted Portugal to reach the final of the 2004 UEFA Europa League, as well as coaching FC Guangzhou, which won the AFC Champions League. Paranhos, under the leadership of Scolari, have won 3 and drawn 1 of their last 4 matches in the Copa Libertadores, which is a reliable standard.
The Argentinean team, Students, is in low form, with only 1 win in the last 6 matches, and a total loss in the last 4 games as an opponent, so the situation is immediately obvious.
