Their attack has been consistently finding the net, scoring in 7 of the last 9 matches within this competition.
Junior Barranquilla has demonstrated solidity on the pitch, crafting a commendable campaign. Competing at home, they enter the match with an air of favouritism and confidence to pursue another victory. The team exhibits consistency in both defensive and attacking aspects, putting them in a favourable position against a struggling opponent. Their strategy will likely revolve around controlling the match, imposing their pace, and exploiting the rival’s weaknesses. Moreover, the backing of their supporters could serve as an added impetus to apply pressure on the opponent. Maintaining focus and intensity will be crucial to prevent any unpleasant surprises.

The visitors find themselves in 18th place, having garnered only 5 points from 5 draws and 4 losses. In their second-last match, they suffered a defeat against Alianza Petrolera (1‑0). Their most recent outing saw them drawing at home with Boyacá Chicó (1‑1).

In the 9 matches played in this competition, they have failed to turn around the scoreline in the 4 games where they conceded first.
Unión Magdalena is navigating a precarious phase, having yet to win in 2025, reflecting their struggles on the field. The team displays numerous weaknesses, particularly in defence, which has hampered their overall performance. Confronted with a more organised opponent and facing an away fixture, they will need to elevate their level of play to secure a positive outcome. The likely approach will be more cautious, focusing on solid defensive work while looking to exploit counter-attacks. To cause an upset, they must produce a more competitive standard of football than they have shown thus far. Any points earned could be vital in reversing their dire spell.
