On the last matchday of the group stage of the 2025 South American Cup, América de Cali hosts Racing Club de Montevideo at Pascual Guerrero.
The team of Jorge Da Silva is in a very delicate situation: it no longer has chances to finish first in the group and therefore can only advance as second, qualifying for the round of 16, which would face them against a third group from the Copa Libertadores.
For this, they must wait for the result of the other match, between Huracán and Corinthians, in Buenos Aires.
Regardless of what happens in the other match, América de Cali will decisively aim to beat Racing de Montevideo, a team that has not scored points in the tournament.
For this, the club urges all the Scarlet fans to BELIEVE and support the team at Pascual Guerrero.
It should be remembered that Huracán is the first in the group with 11 points, Corinthians second with 8, and América de Cali follows them with 7.
A victory of the Brazilian team in Argentina eliminates América, but Huracán, a very solid team that has just reached the final of the Argentine Apertura, and is still undefeated in the South American Cup (like América, although the reds won only one), is not going to give away that first place that qualifies them directly to the round of 16.
If Corinthians loses, América de Cali could qualify second even by drawing at Pascual Guerrero, by goal difference.
A few minutes ago, América de Cali released the list of 23 footballers concentrated with the technical staff of Polilla Da Silva for the match that will be from 7:30 pm.
The call includes all the regular starters in the Red Devils' latest games, except for the previously known absences of Éder Álvarez Balanta, Cristian Barrios and Mateo Castillo.
