Independiente Medellín Preview
Independiente Medellín needs all three points in this upcoming match to secure its ticket to the playoffs. They achieved an important victory in their most recent match by a score of 0-2 against Unión Magdalena and are in good shape for their next challenge.
They are one of the teams with the best form in the last five matches with four wins and only one loss in that period, and of course playing at home in this match is a good thing as they are one of the three remaining unbeaten home sides, with an unbeaten record of eight matches: six wins and two draws.
Absences: No report.
Probable lineup: Andrés Mosquera, Juan Guillermo Arboleda, Víctor Moreno, Andrés Cadavid, Germán Gutiérrez, Felipe Pardo, Dani Torres, Andrés Ricaurte, Vladimir Hernández, Diber Cambindo and Luciano Pons.
Atlético Bucaramanga Preview
Atlético Bucaramanga won by a score of 3-1 against La Equidad, achieving its seventh victory in 17 matches so far. They still have a chance to make the playoffs, but they don’t depend on themselves.
Atlético is currently outside the top eight with 24 points, so the feline team will face a difficult match as visitors. The positive side about this is that they have not lost in their last three away games, having won two of them in a row. However, those two victories are the only ones in eight meetings on rival territory. Better late than never, right?
Absences: No report.
Probable lineup: Juan Camilo Chaverra, Francisco Meza, Michel Acosta, Carlos Henao, Cristian Blanco, Cristian Subero, Bruno Téliz, Johan Caballero, Sherman Cárdenas, Gustavo Torres, Dayro Moreno.
JefeBet Prediction
Independiente Medellín has five consecutive home wins in league matches, scoring two goals or more in each of them. Although here they will face an opponent that has not allowed any goals from their opponents in the last two games, they are not expected to stop scoring and winning at home.
Prediction: Independiente Medellín wins by a score of 2-1.
