Top of Group F with 10 points from their opening four games, one more would be enough for the four-time champions River Plate to progress to the knockout stages for an eighth successive year.

Although, it will not be straightforward against their Chilean opponents, who will move level on points with a victory. There was an exciting finish to the return fixture in April, which River Plate won 2-1, with all three goals coming in the final 10 minutes.

River Plate team news

Enzo Fernandez will look to continue his impressive goalscoring form for the hosts, having netted three times in their last four games.

Meanwhile, Julian Alvarez – scorer of a hat-trick in the recent 7-0 rout of Sarmiento – has two assists so far in the competition.

But they will be without Matias Suarez, who has a thigh strain, as well as Robert Rojas (fractured fibia and tibula) and Felipe Pena Biafore (ruptured cruciate ligament).

Colo-Colo team news

The visitors’ charge will be led by Juan Martin Lucero, who is the second-highest scorer in this season’s competition with four goals.

Gustavo Quinteros does not like to tinker with his starting XI too much; making just one enforced change in the four group games so far after Emiliano Amor’s red card in the opener against Fortaleza.

The coach will also be hoping for inspiration from Gabriel Costa, who has a couple of assists to his name.
