Santos opened their Copa Libertadores campaign with a win and will be hoping to get a second one when they host Ecuadorian side, Deflin. Deflin have a point in Group G and are second to Santos who have three points from the win over Defensa y Justicia. Santos head to the clash unbeaten in three matches, with two straight wins but they will be hoping to get their first clean sheet in three matches here. With just two losses and six wins in their last 11 matches, Santos will be favorites to bag three points here. The Brazilian side has a fine run at home – unbeaten in their last 14 and they have four clean sheets in the last five home matches. They have 11 wins in 14 home matches having scored two or more in seven of the last 10 home matches. They have not conceded a goal at home in the last three Copa Libertadores matches but have not won their last two in the competition. With six wins in nine Copa Libertadores matches at home, Santos will be very confident going to this match.

Delfin, on the other hand, have no outright win in eight of their last nine matches. They have three losses in their last four matches and have no clean sheet in the last five outings. They conceded late in the last match, to lose 2-1 to Portoviejo and earlier they had to come from down to draw Olimpia in their first group game. They have just one win in the last 13 away matches and just one clean sheet in the last five away matches. Deflin have not been very strong in defence, but in only one of the last six away matches have they conceded twice. They are unbeaten in five straight Libertadores matches, though each of the last three ended in draws.
