The league table is allowed to rest as Barranquilla and Tigres battle for Copa Betplay honors in this first 1st Round leg of two fixtures.
The hosts Barranquilla saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Primera B. Thankfully the previous game, versus Real Cartagena, was also a home game here at Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez. The away team is better rested.
These teams have little in common geographically as Tigres have to travel 1000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
