Barcelona SC
The Barcelona of Guayaquil has a brilliant start to the season where they have not yet known defeat. The Ecuadorian team won the previous rounds over Montevideo City Torque and the Peruvian Universitario. The gold medalist changed coach after the win against Universitario, now being Jorge Célico. However, this change in the bench did not affect Barcelona at all, which remains undefeated and is the absolute leader in the local tournament, with 12 points out of a possible 12.
