América de Cali form and stats
The story so far in the Liga BetPlay for América de Cali, who have the fewest conceded goals (12) in Liga BetPlay, at their home stadium (Estadio Olímpico Pascual Guerrero) is 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats.
The América crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Atletico PR here at Estadio Olímpico Pascual Guerrero in a Copa Sudamericana match.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Cerro Porteno (0-1).The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.

América de Cali are traveling soon after this match as the Copa Sudamericana match at Atletico PR awaits in three days.

Junior form and stats
Playing away, Junior have won 3 games, drawn 2 and suffered 4 defeats in the Liga BetPlay this season.
Home advantage was not enough for Junior in their previous game, as they lost their Copa Sudamericana-match, hosting Libertad, 3-4. As you can tell from the result, the match against Libertad was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
It was a Liga BetPlay defeat before that one as the away game against Millonarios wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Junior playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were two Junior wins, six draws and two defeats.
Junior has another fixture away, a Copa Sudamericana game, against Libertad in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
The attacking power of Junior when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 9 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Junior as they have only conceded 8 goals from these away games.
