The season is still fairly new and the Primera B table has to be read with caution. So far Barranquilla find themselves in 14th position and Leones FC are placed 12th.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Primera B.

This stadium uses grass, unlike Leones FC's home stadium. The visitors last 39 games on grass have ended in 4 wins, 11 draws and 24 losses. It's quite the trip for Leones FC when visiting Barranquilla as the cities are 900 kilometers apart.
