In the last knockout match between the teams, Corinthians emerged victorious. They faced each other in the quarterfinals of the 2023 CONMEBOL Sudamericana. After winning the first leg 1-0 at the Neo Química Arena and losing by the same score at the Jorge Luis Hirschi stadium, Corinthians advanced to the semifinals after winning on penalties.

The Libertadores duel marks the 90th anniversary of the first match between the teams, a confrontation that also served as the setting for Ronaldo's debut in 2009. The first game played between the teams took place in 1936, in a friendly match at Fazendinha, where Corinthians emerged victorious with a score of 1-0.

Corinthians arrives for the decisive match in a delicate moment. In the Brasileirão, they have already suffered five consecutive defeats, the last one against Flamengo at the Maracanã, by 2-1. Thanks to this negative streak, the São Paulo team occupies 13th position in the table, with 32 points. Only 4 points separate Corinthians from the relegation zone.

Estudiantes comes into the match confident after beating Platense 2-1 at home last Saturday in a game valid for the 9th round of the Argentine Championship. In the overall standings, the Pincharratas are in 11th place with 10 points.

For the match, Corinthians will be missing several players, including Yuri Alberto, Zakaria Labyad, and Kayke, who are in the medical department; André Ramalho, who is recovering from labyrinthitis; and Raniele, who was sent off. On the other hand, midfielder André Luiz will be available again for coach Fernando Diniz and will be an option on the Corinthians bench. Like the home team, the Argentinians will also have absences: Benedetti, suspended due to accumulated yellow cards; Tiago Palacios, Lucas Alario, and Ramiro Funes, all injured.
