Envigado form and stats

Envigado have played 6 Liga BetPlay games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-2-1 (wins-draws-losses).

The Envigado coach Giraldo and his side return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Cortuluá (placed 11th). Midfielder Asprilla was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.05 (out of ten) in that game. Asprilla scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus La Equidad.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Envigado as they have a new game in only four days, a Copa Colombia match thankfully also at home. Atletico Bucaramanga are visiting.

Envigado are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 6 games. Envigado are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Polideportivo Sur in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 4 from 6 matches.

Once Caldas form and stats

As the visiting team in Liga BetPlay matches, Once Caldas have produced an overall stat of 2-2-2 so far.

Once Caldas's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Deportes Tolima that finished 2-2. The attacker Valle got a match rating of 9.01 in that game. Valle scored two goals and hit one key pass.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Millonarios wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Caldas as they have only managed to score 4 times from 6 away games in the league. It's not easy to score on Once Caldas as they have only conceded 5 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - one - seven (Envigado wins - draws - Once Caldas wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
