They follow Mineiro River (76) and Mouth (71), which will not be able to add due to playing in the South American. Therefore Nacional de Montevideo emerges as the main threat to Xeneize.
In the only way that the Purse can displace Mouth is reaching the semifinals of the Libertadores, winning all their matches (a draw can be allowed, taking into account a hypothetical defeat against River.
This is because each victory grants three points, one for a tie and three each time one of the competition’s stages is passed.
