LDU de Quito host Lanus in Group G of the Copa Libertadores, with both sides knowing that the result could shift the balance of the standings in a tight section.
The Ecuadorian side come into this fixture having won back-to-back league games, with confidence building domestically even as their continental form has been inconsistent. A 2-1 victory over Tecnico Universitario was their most recent outing, and they will need to carry that momentum into a fixture where a win is close to essential.
Lanus arrive in Quito under pressure. The Argentine club have lost their last two Copa Libertadores matches and were beaten 4-0 by Always Ready in their previous group stage outing, a result that exposed real vulnerabilities in their defensive shape.
That said, Lanus did beat LDU on their own patch earlier in the group stage, winning 1-0 in Buenos Aires in late April. That result gives them belief that they can take something from this reverse fixture, even on unfamiliar ground.
LDU will point to home advantage and the altitude of Quito as factors in their favour. They have a record of making life difficult for visiting South American sides and will look to press from the front and exploit any hesitancy in the Lanus backline.
This is a Copa Libertadores group stage fixture with real stakes. A win for LDU would strengthen their grip on qualification, while Lanus need a positive result to keep their last-16 hopes alive.

LDU de Quito have won three of their last five matches, with their two defeats both coming in the Copa Libertadores. They lost 2-0 to Mirassol and 1-0 to Lanus in the group stage, but have looked sharper in domestic competition, beating Mushuc Runa 3-1 away from home and following that with a 1-0 win over Guayaquil City. Their most recent result, a 2-1 victory over Tecnico Universitario, makes it back-to-back wins heading into this fixture.
Lanus have struggled badly for form, picking up just one win from their last five matches. That win came against LDU in the Copa Libertadores, but since then they have drawn twice in the Liga Profesional and suffered a damaging 4-0 defeat to Always Ready. Their most recent outing was a 2-0 loss to Argentinos Juniors, and they have scored just one goal across their last four games.
