Another interesting match in the Primera Division. Carabobo is in the 7th place after featuring in two fixtures. They welcome Deportivo Táchira who are placed 4th after three games.

The hosts Carabobo saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Copa Libertadores. This match was also played here at Estadio Polideportivo Misael Delgado. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Deportivo Táchira have had more rest.
