How and Where to Watch: Recoleta vs. Boca Juniors live on beIN SPORTS
Boca Juniors heads into Tuesday’s second leg with a 3-1 advantage over Recoleta, but injuries to key players could complicate its path to the quarterfinals and a potential semifinal showdown with River Plate.
For a large part of Boca Juniors' clash against Recoleta in their opening Copa Sudamericana match last week, matters were looking bleak for the Argentinean giants.

The home team were 1-0 down to its Paraguayan opponents in the first leg in La Bombonera until the 49th minute before Boca were finally able to respond with three second half strikes. That 3-1 win puts Boca in pole position in Tuesday's second leg in Asuncion. However, there is still work to be done, especially with key players set to miss the match through injury – Leandro Paredes, Marco Pellegrino, and Leandro Lozano.
History is at least in Boca's favor on Tuesday with the Argentinean's progressing in 22 of its last 24 CONMEBOL tournament ties when winning the first leg at home.
However, should Boca prevail and reach the quarterfinals of the Copa Sudamericana, then the team would be one step nearer to a potentially monster clash with River Plate in the semifinals, as both teams are in the same side of the bracket.
