Form and Momentum

Deportes Tolima has been showing a commendable form lately, currently sitting in 7th position with 27 points from 16 matches. Their recent performances reveal a mixed bag, managing 7 wins, 6 draws, and just 3 losses. The home side's ability to score 22 goals while conceding just 15 should instill confidence in their fans.

While they drew with Deportivo Cali in their most recent outing, they previously triumphed against La Equidad, which solidifies their home advantage.

In sharp contrast, Unión Magdalena has endured a turbulent season, finding themselves at the bottom of the table with a mere 8 points after 16 matches. Their record of 0 wins, 8 draws, and 8 losses paints a disheartening picture, allowing 22 goals while scoring only 12. Their most recent match ended in a loss against Envigado, where they conceded two goals despite their spirited performance earning some praise.

Head-to-Head Clash

Recent encounters between these two teams have also favored Deportes Tolima, as they secured a 2-1 victory in their previous meeting in late October 2023. With home advantage and a favorable performance record, Tolima will be keen to extend this winning streak. On average, they have been strong offensively, averaging nearly 12 shots per game, alongside a solid defensive showing evidenced by their impressive clean sheets.
