The Copa Libertadores have entered the 3rd round, where one of these round matches FBC Melgar will act as the host to host Caracas FC this match as well as being the first meeting match for both teams. FBC Melgar was the representative team of the Peruvian league while for Caracas FC the representative team for Venezuela.

FBC Melga and Caracas FC both failed to win in the last match, FBC went unbeaten in the first match day match with a score of 0-3 humiliated by Deportivo Municipal. Instead for Caracas FC they were held to a 1-1 draw by Aragua, with this result FBC Melgar recorded a failure to win in his last 2 matches and for Caracas FC failed to win in the last 4 matches.

Caracas FC has actually been vacuumed for 2 years not following this event, the last in the Copa Libertadores in 2016 when they were eliminated in round 1 by Huracan. Instead for FBC Melgar they played in this event almost every year, last year they were eliminated in round 2 when they hosted Santiago Wanderers but interestingly FBC Melgar had more flight hours in the Copa Libertadores.

The chance for victory in this match is reasonable if it is still expected to FBC Melgar, apart from being able to benefit from playing at home but also in the quality of the competition played by the Peruvian League better than the Venezuelan League. With more experience playing in the Copa Libertadores in recent years, chances are Caracas FC will be defeated in this leg 1.
