Atlético Nacional and Junior FC meet so often that they count as a pair who know each other's game well, and both sides have taken turns blowing each other out at home. This time the pattern flips, because the side about to play at home is the team with the clearly better league form. Atlético Nacional have picked up 6 wins from 9 league matches, scoring frequently and conceding little, while Junior FC are still several lengths behind, their defense giving away about as many goals as they score. As for the run of play, Atlético Nacional have clearly dominated possession and put more shots on target over the last 10 matches. If the hosts take the lead first, the game will likely flow in one direction, because Junior FC would have to open up and trade blows, which is not the strength of a team that concedes late goals often, and that is the path that gives the hosts a chance to close out the game by more than a single goal.
