Chico FC did well enough to hold Millionarios to a draw in the last round of games. Despite Millonarios holding 58% ball possession, they lost several chances to take a dominant lead in the game. Millonarios took advantage of Chico FC's loose defense and scored an early eight minute goal through Edgar Guerra after getting on the end of Leonardo Castro's cross. Following that conceded goal, Chico FC strengthened their defense as many goal attempts were successfully warded off by either the goalkeeper or the defenders. Chico FC equalized two minutes before half time as Wilmar Cruz headed Sebastian Tamara's cross into the top left corner from close range. During the second half, all attempts by Millonarios to take the lead were fruitless as Chico FC locked up the defense and parked the bus while limiting Millonarios to just one shot in the second half! Chico FC have lost three of its last five matches, winning and drawing one each. They have scored just three goals and conceded nine across the five games.

Deportivo Cali played its last match against CD Jaguares and won comfortably thanks to a brace from Gustavo Ramirez. After missing a big chance earlier in the first half, Deportivo Cali opened the scoring three minutes into added time (45+1). Gustavo Ramirez pounced on a loose ball inside the box by blasting a right footed shot into the top left corner. Brayan Montano first hit a shot that was blocked after a scramble inside the box before Gustavo Ramirez scored the rebound. Gustavo Ramirez scored again in the 60th minute by rising highest to head home Jhon Vasquez corner kick. Jhon Vasquez could have made it 3-0 for Deportivo Cali but his penalty kick was saved by Banguera after conceding the penalty on Jhon Vasquez. In their past 5 games, Deportivo Cali has recorded two wins, two losses and one draw, scoring and conceding six goals through the five matches.

Deportivo Cali are favorites to win the match and have a nice winning history against the home team. In the last nine matches between both teams, Deportivo Cali has won six and lost just one with the other two ending in a draw. Deportivo Cali are also 8th placed on the league table while Chico FC are far below in 18th place. Regardless of this fact, the heated drive sparked in Chico FC's last game against Millonarios indicated the potential for the underdog to win the match especially since Chico FC will be playing at home.
