The visiting team arrives for this stage of the Primera Division (opening – quarterfinals) after finishing 2nd in their previous phase, albeit without securing any points. This team is also impacted by the home advantage, historically performing better in front of their supporters. In their last 30 games as away challengers, they recorded 3 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses, scoring 18 goals and conceding 23. In contrast, their home form has been impressive, with 10 wins, 3 draws, and 2 losses, netting 20 goals while conceding only 8. Over their last 10 games out in the championship, Dep. Tolima has recorded 3 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses, gathering 13 points from a possible 30. Defensively, they have shown weaknesses, conceding goals in 8 of the last 10 matches; however, their attack has been reliable, managing to score in 9 of those games. In total, they conceded first in 9 of their 20 matches in the first division, only successfully turning around 3 of those.
While Dep. Tolima aimed to progress positively into the quadrangulars, their recent performance against the Águilas was below expectations, reflecting inefficiencies that must be addressed in this crucial competition phase. For Tolima to remain competitive in Group A’s standings, securing points against the formidable Junior is imperative.
