Match preview: Once Caldas vs Atlético Nacional

Once Caldas and Atlético Nacional will meet at Palogrande Stadium in the first round of the first division. Historical encounters at this venue show a competitive balance, with 1 draw and 3 wins for each side in their last 7 meetings.

The goals were scored by Dayro Moreno (90′) for Once Caldas and D. Asprilla (24′) and M. Hinestroza (76′) for Atlético Nacional. It’s important to note the disparity in form when playing at home versus away, as both teams have demonstrated significantly different results in their respective settings.

Team analysis: Once Caldas

The home side contested this match for the Primera Division (Clausura) following a 4th-place finish in the previous classification stage (opening – quarter-finals), accumulating a total of 3 points. They have a stronger record when competing on home soil, having secured 8 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses at home compared to 4 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses as visitors in their last 30 games. In the league, Once Caldas garnered 14 points out of a possible 30, with 4 victories, 2 draws, and 4 defeats in their last 10 home matches. Defensive solidity has not been a hallmark for the team, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 games, yet their attack has remained consistent, scoring in 7 of these encounters. Matches played at home tend to have a high goal count, with 9 out of 13 ending with more than 2.5 goals. It is worth mentioning that in 25 matches in this competition, they managed to come from behind only 3 times after conceding first. Highlights include scoring 8 of their 20 goals within the final 15 minutes of play (76’–90′).

Although Once Caldas reached the quadrangular phase of Apertura, their performance was underwhelming, resulting in them finishing last in Group B. They exhibited a lack of decision-making on the pitch. With the aim to improve their standing in Clausura, they need to focus on kicking off their campaign with a victory against the formidable Atlético Nacional, who are not easily overcome.

Team analysis: Atlético Nacional

The visiting side competes in this match within the Primera Division (Clausura) after achieving 3rd place in the previous qualifying phase (opening – quarter-finals), with a tally of 8 points. They tend to perform strongly at home, while their record on the road reflects 3 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses in their last 30 matches, in contrast to 10 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses at home. Atlético Nacional amassed 13 points from a possible 30, boasting 3 victories, 4 draws, and 3 losses in their last 10 away games. The team has shown vulnerability defensively, conceding in 8 of their last 10 matches, yet they have scored consistently, managing to net goals in 7 of their past 10 fixtures. Across 26 matches within this competition, they found themselves behind after conceding first on 7 occasions and have yet to turn those fixtures around. Key points in their away games include scoring 7 of their 17 goals between the 31st and 45th minutes, while allowing 4 of their 11 goals within the first 15 minutes.

Atlético Nacional narrowly missed out on advancing to the finals of Apertura, falling short by just one point, demonstrating their technical prowess on the pitch. As they aim to create an even stronger campaign during this phase, maintaining their characteristic gameplay is essential. This new challenge puts them in a position where they are determined to overcome Once Caldas.
