Racing Club are on the verge of their first Copa Sudamericana quarter-final appearance since 2017 as they host Huachipato on Tuesday from Estadio Presidente Peron in Avellaneda.
In the opening leg of that round of 16 tie last week, El Primer Grande earned a 2-0 away victory, putting them in the pole position to advance.
We say: Racing Club 2-0 Huachipato (Racing Club advance 4-0 on aggregate)
Despite a resilient come-from-behind victory at the round of 32, another comeback seems unlikely for the Chileans against a disciplined and quality attacking side in Racing.

Corinthians will welcome Bragantino to Neo Quimica Arena on Wednesday for the second leg of their Copa Sudamericana round-of-16 tie.
The hosts hold a 2-1 advantage from the first leg at Estadio Santa Cruz last week and will be looking to seal their place in the quarter-finals on home soil.
We say: Corinthians 2-1 Bragantino (Corinthians advances 4-2 on aggregate)
Corinthians may be having an underwhelming domestic season, but they have been solid in the Copa Sudamericana, especially on home soil where they have been perfect.
Bragantino, on the other hand, are on a poor run and will have to take the initiative given that they are trailing in the tie, which is why we think they will be susceptible to fast breaks and lose this clash.
