It's early days in the Primera A and both Patriotas Boyaca and Santa Fe are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Patriotas Boyacá form and stats
Patriotas Boyacá are yet to win a home game, having collected 2 points from their first two Liga BetPlay games here at Estadio de La Independencia. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.
Patriotas Boyacá faced defeat in their previous match, away at Independiente Medellín (1-3). In the match before that, Patriotas Boyacá hosted Deportivo Cali and drew the game 0-0.
This is expected to be a close game, with Patriotas Boyacá perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Patriotas Boyacá as a small favourite), we find ten games. Patriotas Boyacá has won six of these, drawn four and lost zero.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Patriotas Boyacá at home in the league. 1 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Santa Fe form and stats
The Liga BetPlay season is young and Santa Fe have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.
Santa Fe go into this game after a win, the home game against Junior that ended 3-1. Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Rionegro Aguilas's place.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Santa Fe playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were two Santa Fe wins, three draws and three defeats.
It's early days yet, but Santa Fe has scored 0 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Patriotas Boyacá, six draws and two wins for Santa Fe. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: nine games.Top Goalscorers
