In the capital, the clásico between Santa Fe and Millonarios is shaping up as a tightly contested battle, with both sides showing very similar momentum after recent positive runs. The two rivals sit just a notch apart in the standings, setting the stage for a heated clash at El Campín that could tilt the table in either direction.
One point separates Millonarios, sitting fifth, from Santa Fe, who trails in sixth ahead of the Bogotá classic scheduled for next Sunday, when the Cardenales will host at the legendary Nemesio Camacho Influenciado Stadium. The prevailing tone is one of parity, as both teams arrive on the back of solid performances and a shared sense of renewed confidence after a string of commendable results.

Millonarios enters the match after a convincing win over Deportivo Pasto, a victory that arrived without too many complications in a match that had been anticipated as a true test of their consistency. Coach Alberto Gamero is likely to retain the XI that earned those three points, save for the absence of Óscar Vanegas due to injury, a setback that temporarily reshapes the attacking options and forces a tweak in the balance of the midfield and forward lines.
Santa Fe comes into the fixture buoyed by a recent victory over Cali and an unbeaten run that now stretches across several fixtures in the league and into the Copa Sudamericana. Under Harold Rivera, the squad is expected to field a familiar lineup that has tightened up defense and sharpened transitions, presenting a balanced challenge for the visitors and aiming to translate form into a strong showing at the Nemesio Camacho.
