Racing Club will welcome Flamengo to the Estadio Presidente Perón in the second leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals on Wednesday. The visitors registered a narrow win in the first leg and will look to keep that lead intact.
The hosts have enjoyed a week's rest for this match and will look to return to goalscoring ways in the home leg. They last made it to the final of the competition in their title-winning campaign in 1967.
Rubro-Negro saw their winning streak end after three games last week as they suffered a narrow 1-0 away loss to Fortaleza in the Brazilian Serie A. They failed to score for the first time in four games in that loss.
