Caracas welcome Deportivo Táchira for another interesting Primera Division fixture here at Estadio Olímpico de la UCV.

Caracas have less rest than Deportivo Táchira in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Copa Libertadores game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Libertad, so at least Caracas are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Deportivo Táchira have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
