The Leopardos come into this Bucaramanga vs Once Caldas match with a respectable performance in this Categoria Primera A season. The Santander team is in 5th place with 9 points out of a possible 18. Raul Armando’s team has shown a willingness to attack, but the team has not been able to achieve a significant goal advantage in any of its matches.
In its most recent league match against Rionegro Águilas, Bucaramanga lost 1-0. That goal came in the 70th minute off the head of Marco Pérez, the golden team’s leading scorer.

Betting on Once Caldas
In the matchday of Colombian soccer against Millonarios, the team from Manizales won 1-0 at home by a great goal by Dayro Moreno. The Embajador team was then left bad positioned, and it was not able to overcome Once Caldas’ defensive capacity.
The Once Caldas team is in 18th place in the Colombian standings with five points, as a result of its only win and two draws. In this new Bucaramanga vs Once Caldas clash, the Albos will surely be aggressive and proactive considering they have a powerful midfield conformed by players like Marlon Piedrahita and Sherman Cárdenas.

JefeBet Prediction
In this new Bucaramanga vs Once Caldas duel, we believe that the teams will share the points.
With a quiet start, the yellow team has shown that it has a competitive roster in Colombian Professional Soccer. The fall on the last matchday of the league was a hard blow, but perhaps also a necessary one to make the team correct its mistakes. In this case, the support of its fans may have a bearing on the development of the match.
On the contrary, Once Caldas possesses a seasoned and substantial team with considerable ability for games on the road.
Prediction: 1-1 draw.
