How the two ties are arranged
Fluminense vs Palmeiras: Fluminense host the first leg on 14 October at the Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro. Palmeiras host the return leg on 21 October at NuBank Parque in São Paulo. Both games start at 9:30 p.m. Brasília time.
Estudiantes vs Flamengo: Estudiantes host the first leg on 15 October at UNO Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium in La Plata. Flamengo host the return leg on 22 October at the Maracanã. Both fixtures are also set for 9:30 p.m. Brasília time.
Does the kick-off in La Plata require a time conversion?
Not for this schedule: 9:30 p.m. in La Plata is 9:30 p.m. in Brasília. CONMEBOL lists the local time at each stadium. Brasília, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and La Plata are on UTC−3 on the scheduled dates, so the kick-off times match. Readers in other Brazilian time zones should convert from Brasília time rather than assume 9:30 p.m. is the local time everywhere in Brazil.
Why was the Estudiantes venue previously listed as undecided?
Early reports on the fixtures still described the venue for 15 October as pending. On 24 September, Estudiantes announced Jorge Luis Hirschi as the semi-final venue, according to a ge report. The official CONMEBOL schedule consulted for this article now lists UNO Jorge Luis Hirschi in La Plata. The table therefore uses that venue rather than repeating an earlier uncertainty as current.
