Betting on Independiente Medellín
The team coached by David González left a good impression in Barranquilla, and it is clear that DIM has arguments to be a protagonist team in the current tournament.
Veteran Felipe Pardo scored the equalizing goal against Junior as a second half substitute and may be given the opportunity to start the game against the Bogotá team.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Andrés Mosquera; Daniel Londoño, Andrés Cadavid, Jhon Palacios, Jonathan Marulanda; Daniel Torres, Andrés Ricaurte; Andrés Ibarguen, Ever Valencia, Edwin Cetré; Luciano Pons.
Betting on Santa Fe
After the 2-2 draw against Jaguares in the debut of the tournament, Santa Fe did not play against Deportivo Cali due to the fact that the U-20 South American Championship is being held in Bogotá, so the Campin Stadium was not available.
Coach Harold Rivera is expected to field this Saturday the same team that earned a point in their visit to Jaguares on matchday 1 of the BetPlay Dimayor 2023 League, except for the expelled Kelvin Osorio.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): José Silva; Dairon Mosquera, Julián Millán, José Aja, Fabián Viafara; Juan Roa, Harold Rivera; José Enamorado, Christian Marrugo, Neyder Moreno; Wilson Morelo.
JefeBet Prediction
Santa Fe has not beaten Independiente Medellín away since September 3, 2017, with a goal by John Pajoy.
Taking into account Medellín’s favorable history in recent years when facing the Bogotá reds at home and the great confidence they have after drawing against Junior, at JefeBet we are leaning towards a win for the locals in this great match.
