Rionegro Águilas hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 8 points and a 15th position in the Liga BetPlay table. Visiting Independiente Medellín holds 8th place with 17 pts.
- Rionegro Águilas have yet to win a game at home.
- Independiente Medellín have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
