The squad faces a potential setback with Jarlan Barrera possibly added to the growing injury list, which already includes Da Costa, Mosquera, John Duque, and Palacios who remain under medical evaluation. Autupri may also be without several players called up to represent national duty, including Palacios, Ángel, Marquínez, Ocampo, and Salazar. As a result, the team fielded is expected to resemble the lineup used in the previous match against Pereira, maintaining continuity while managing fitness concerns ahead of this high-stakes fixture.
On the other side, David González will navigate gaps caused by Ricaurte, Ibargüen, Gómez, and Cambindo being unavailable due to injuries. Additionally, Monsalve and Cabezas will be absent due to national team obligations, shaping a squad that is otherwise capable of pushing for Libertadores success and that recently earned a confident regional victory against Jaguares at Atanasio.
