Libertad Loja on the road to the Copa Sudamericana
After an even first half, Libertad Loja lost 1-4 away to Leones del Norte in their last Serie A match on 25 October 2026. The visitors actually had more shots on target - 7 to 5 - but scored only once.

Now they need at least a point in the upcoming match to spare themselves any further anxiety. Over ten rounds, the team average 1.7 goals scored per game and concede around 1.2.
