Betting on the Copa Libertadores


Betting on the Copa Libertadores requires a deep understanding of the squads, especially the teams in Uruguay, Ecuador, Bolivia, Paraguay, Peru and Venezuela.

Home advantage is an important factor with many teams from Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru playing at high altitude. This can provide a significant advantage over their South American neighbours.

Bolivian clubs Nacional Potosí and Real Potosí play at 4067 metres above sea level.

Teams from Argentina and Brazil have dominated the tournament. An Argentine club has won the tournament 25 times (39%), with a club from Brazil winning 23 times (36%).
