Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Deportivo Cali in 7th and La Equidad in 10th place.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Deportivo Cali and La Equidad.
Deportivo Cali form and stats
2 victories, 3 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Deportivo Cali have to build on here at Estadio Deportivo Cali in the Liga BetPlay.
Nothing to worry about in defence for Cali, as their goalkeeper David Gonzalez Giraldo has completely shut out the opponents for 195 minutes in the Liga BetPlay.
Cali manager A. Arias Sánchez and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Jaguares de Cordoba (placed 15th) in the Liga BetPlay. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Alianza Petrolera.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Cali have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won five times, drawn four and lost one.
There will be little rest for Deportivo Cali after this match as they are travelling to Deportivo Pasto for a Liga BetPlay game in only three days.
The Cali fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. From these home matches, Cali have conceded only 4 goals.
La Equidad form and stats
Playing away, La Equidad have won 1 game, drawn 1 and suffered 3 defeats in the Liga BetPlay this season.
La Equidad won their last game, 1-0 versus Independiente Medellin played at home. A 0-2 defeat away at Jaguares de Cordoba before that.
Equidad are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, nine draws and three defeats. From a total of 15 matches.
A quick return to home after this game, as La Equidad are hosting Once Caldas in the Liga BetPlay only three days away.
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Equidad's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 8 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Deportivo Cali three wins, four draws and La Equidad three victories. As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), nine games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
