La Equidad (5th)

Last Two Matches: D-W-D-D

The Capital Greens have managed to escape defeat in the first four games of the Clausura and presently face La Equidad. They initially shared spoils in the first two games against Independiente Medellin and Envigado. They pressed for victory against Rionegro Aguilas and sustained a 1-0 win, shortly before getting tangled in a 1-1 gridlock against America De Cali. They are tipped as slight favorites to win this game, despite the fact that the match is expected to be low-scoring.

Santa Fe (7th)

Last Match: L-W-W

Los Cardenales have boldly contested the first three games of the Clausura with the intent of three wins but only got six points. They began brilliantly in a league clash against Jaguares de Cordoba and entered the Copa Colombia, where they fell in a 1-2 defeat to Deportivo Cali. They pushed on regardless on a league return against Independiente Medellin where they showed class once more before finally losing the last league game against Deportivo Pasto in the 0-2 showdown. The guests are expected to win, but not without a fight from the guests, and a low-scoring game is predicted by pundits.
