SAPL vs RAC Dream11 Team Prediction for Sao Paulo vs Racing Club South American Champions League Live Score 18 May

Sao Paolo will be squaring off to Racing Club at the Cicero Pompeu de Toledo Stadium for their Copa Libertadores group stage game. Sao Paulo are going through an impressive run of form, and are on the back two consecutive wins over Paulista A1. As for Racing, they secured a win on penalties versus Velez Sarsfield in the Argentina Primera Division fixture, but will be looking to be more dynamic with their approach up front.  The two teams did take on one another earlier this month at the Estadio Presidente Peron, as the match ended as a goalless draw. William da Silva’s sending off was one of the talking points of the game on that day. Nevertheless, we can expect the fixture to be yet another tactical affair. With that being said, here is the SAPL vs RAC Dream 11 Prediction for the upcoming contest.
