Flamengo vs LDU Quito Prediction and Betting Tips | May 15th 2025
Flamengo will invite LDU Quito to Maracanã Stadium in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores. The visitors have enjoyed an unbeaten run in four games thus far, and a win here will confirm their berth in the knockout round. This is a must-win match for Mengão, who are in third place in the Group C table and trail Quito by three points.
The hosts are winless in the Libertadores since the campaign opener and were held to a 1-1 draw by Central Córdoba last week. They returned to winning ways after two games on Saturday, recording a 1-0 home win over Bahia in the Brazilian Serie A. Giorgian de Arrascaeta scored the only goal of the match in the eighth minute.
Albos registered a 3-2 away win over Deportivo Táchira last week and continued that form with a 1-0 away win over Macará in the LigaPro.

Rey de Copas Ecuatoriano have won their two away games in May, scoring four goals, and will look to build on that form. Notably, they have won just one of their last eight away games in the Libertadores.
