International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both Deportivo Cali and Always Ready are looking forward to this Copa Libertadores fight to decide who advances from the Group Stage.
Always Ready play their home matches on artifical turf, while this fixture takes place on grass. The latest statistics for Always Ready when featuring on grass are 14 wins, 7 draws and 13 defeats from 34 matches. They have scored 48 goals and conceded 51 times in these games.
Always Ready have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 4000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Cali and Always Ready.

Always Ready form and stats
Always Ready's mission in Copa Libertadores last season failed in the group stage.The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Always Ready so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-4 (win-draw-lose).

Prior to that match, the Always Ready manager Villegas faced defeat when travelling to Wilstermann and losing 0-1.Always have another game that requires travelling in just three sleeps, a Liga De Futbol Prof game against Universitario de Vinto. A strenuous itinerary for the guests!
