The first of two encounters in the Copa Libertadores 2nd Round, as the hometeam Olimpia will try to edge Atlético Nacional in their own ballpark.
These teams have little in common geographically as Atlético Nacional have to travel 6400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
The hosts Olimpia saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Division 1. This match was also played here at Estadio Defensores del Chaco. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Atlético Nacional have had more rest.
Olimpia form and stats
Olimpia have not come this way in the Copa Libertadores without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Cesar Vallejo. Olimpia participated in Copa Libertadores the last season, where they reached the quarter-finals and lost against Flamengo.Olimpia are yet to win a home game, having collected 2 points from their first two Division 1 games here at Estadio Defensores del Chaco.
The spoils were shared in Olimpia's previous game, also at home. Visiting Libertad travelled back with a draw after a 2-2 scoreline.
There will be little rest for Olimpia after this match as they are travelling to Sol de America for a Division 1 game in only four days.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Olimpia at home in the league. 4 on target and 4 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Atlético Nacional form and stats
Atlético Nacional's mission in Copa Libertadores last season failed in the group stage.Playing away, Atlético Nacional have won 3 games, drawn 1 and suffered 0 defeats in the Liga BetPlay this season.
Atlético Nacional had fun at their own home (Estadio Defensores del Chaco) last time out, beating Unión Magdalena 1-0. Blanco scored. Midfield player Barrera was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.8/10. Barrera hit the woodwork once, served one assist and hit three key passes.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Envigado at their stadium, the result 2-1.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Atlético Nacional playing away and similar expectations, we found 17 relevant matches. Results were five Atlético wins, five draws and seven defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Atlético Nacional now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Liga BetPlay game at Atletico Bucaramanga is waiting in only three days.
Atlético Nacional has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 6 goals from 4 games. It's not easy to score on Atlético as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
