Argentine club Tigre prepares to host Uruguay's Montevideo City Torque on Wednesday in the first leg of their Copa Sudamericana round of 16 tie. The match is scheduled for 7 p.m. local time at the Estadio José Dellagiovanna in Victoria.

Fans can catch the action live on ESPN, with online streaming options available through Flow, DGO, and Disney+ Premium. Tigre secured their spot in this stage by overcoming fellow Uruguayan side Nacional in a playoff, winning 4-2 on aggregate. Domestically, Tigre has been in strong form, recently defeating River Plate and Racing Club in their league.

However, Tigre will be without their leading scorer, David Romero, who was sold to Parma for approximately $10 million. Montevideo City Torque, managed by Marcelo Méndez, qualified directly for the knockout stage by finishing first in their group. The return leg will be played a week later in Montevideo, with the winner advancing to face either Cienciano or Botafogo in the quarterfinals.
