Atlético form and stats

Two home games so far for Atlético, who are yet to win here at Estadio Olímpico Pascual Guerrero, having collected only 1 point so far. All in all it has been a very rough period for Atlético who hasn’t won a game in their last eleven attempts. Their previous win was against Deportes Quindío.

The fans are hoping that Atlético will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Primera B game against Real Cartagena. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Leones FC that ended 1-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Atlético perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Atlético as a small favourite), we find five games. Atlético has won 1 of these, drawn 2 and lost 2.

There will be little rest for Atlético after this match as they are travelling to Real Santander for a Primera B game in only three days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Atlético at home. 1 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Universitario Popayán form and stats

It's not happening yet for Universitario Popayán on their travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Universitario Popayán have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Orsomarso game.

Universitario Popayán are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Primera B against Tigres. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Valledupar wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found one similar match played by Universitario Popayán in our archives, and the results are: 0 wins for Universitario Popayán, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Universitario Popayán are hosting Deportes Quindío in the Primera B only four days away.
