It's early days in the Primera A and the teams 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.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Santa Fe form and stats

The season is young and Santa Fe have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on P. Camps, the Santa Fe manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

There were no winners in Santa Fe's previous match, a Primera A home game that ended 0-0 vs Patriotas Boyacá. Prior to that match, the Santa Fe manager P. Camps faced defeat when travelling to Deportes Tolima and losing 0-4.
