A key match in Primera A as both teams are battling for the top positions. With the home team in 2nd position and the visitors placed 5th, this promises to be an exciting meeting. Read on to find out more!
It's no vacation for neither América de Cali nor Santa Fe as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
América de Cali form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at Olimpico Pascual Guerrero as América de Cali have scored 13 goals to get 21 points from 10 games. The overall stats in the Primera A are 6-3-1 (wins-draws-losses). América de Cali has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Olimpico Pascual Guerrero. We remember; it was Atletico Huila.
América de Cali are confident in defense, having played 197 minutes without conceding a goal.
América de Cali's last game was hosting Santa Fe and winning 2-0. Before that match, a win away at 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 América de Cali have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found four games) they have won 2 times, drawn 1 and lost 1.
