The away team comes to this stage of the Copa Sudamericana (Final) after havinf played in the previous rounds against: Fluminense, Bahia, Caracas, Peñarol and Newell's Old Boys.

In this competition, they have a sequence of 4 wins in the last away matches. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 33 of the last 69 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 47 out of 69 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 8 of the last 10 matches for the Copa Sudamericana, they have reached half‑time in front in 6 of those 8 matches and have always held on to the lead until the end of the 90'.

Atletico PR arrives quite confident for this final, as it has been performing a great campaign within the competition. In the semifinals, Atlético PR managed to eliminate Fluminense with two wins. The team has the advantage of playing the game back in their home, where they have been able to achieve excellent results in the season. The away team's goal is to apply a strong mark, thus trying to hold the home team, and going back to Brazil at least with a tie, which will be very celebrated. The coach should not have important players missing for this match, so he should put a very competitive team in the field.
