It's game one of two in the Copa Sudamericana as Deportivo Cali host Melgar. This is a Round of 16 fixture played over two legs and nothing will be decided tonight.

It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Melgar, who are travelling more than 3500 kilometers to play this game.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Deportivo Cali form and stats

Cali was eliminated in the 1st round last season in the Copa Sudamericana. Deportes Tolima was too strong.

With 2 Primera A wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Deportivo Cali are certainly not brimming with confidence.

The regulars hope that Deportivo Cali will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away defeat in the Copa Libertadores fixture against Boca Juniors. Caldera was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.04 out of 10. The defender Caldera won 4 of 9 duels.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Primera A game versus Jaguares de Cordoba in only three days. This game is also played here at Estadio Cali.

Deportivo Cali aren't scoring a lot here at Estadio Deportivo Cali in the league, with only 9 goals from 10 games. Deportivo Cali have conceded 12 in these home matches.

Melgar form and stats

They also participated in Copa Sudamericana last season. This ended in the group stage.

5 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Melgar playing as the away team in the Primera Division this season.

691 minutes! That's how long the Melgar goalkeeper Carlos Alberto Caceda Oyaguez and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Melgar are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the game against Atletico Grau. Defender Reyna was the best team player with a rating of 7.84. Reyna hit three key passes and won 6 of 9 duels.

Prior to that result Melgar won their away game at Sport Boys in the Primera Division. The scoreline was 1-0.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Primera Division trip to Alianza Atletico.

Melgar have scored 10 goals on their travels this season, from 9 away games in the league. 11 goals have been conceded by Melgar in these games.
