Happy days for Atlético Nacional in their previous game, a fixture away at Deportivo Pasto (placed 13th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. The goalie Castillo was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.33 out of ten. Castillo topped it up with a clean sheet.
Before that game, the 3-1 home victory against Atletico Huila.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
