Verdolaga aims for a second championship by hosting Cali, stepping onto the field with a clear purpose and renewed energy. The team arrives with momentum from their first Super League final victory over Pereira, a win that has energized the squad and fans alike. In the current campaign, National Athletics seeks to continue their positive run after a short dry spell, hoping to reclaim a winning rhythm in the green classic against Deportivo Cali. The scene is set for a clash that could define the next phase of both clubs’ seasons, with players, coaches, and supporters counting every passing minute as they chase vital points and pride on the pitch.

Injury concerns touch the squad as Sebastián Gómez, Álvaro Angulo, and Nelson Palacio miss league action due to injuries, while Juan Felipe Aguirre serves a suspension linked to the red card against Pereira on Wednesday. The tactical plan remains flexible, with several roster adjustments anticipated. Yet the team will stick with the three-man midfield line that proved effective at Hernán Ramírez Villegas, a formation that provided balance and control in recent fixtures. The coaching staff is expected to keep faith with the base that started against Once Caldas, a performance that held the line and kept the match scoreless in Palmaseca.
For his part, Jorge Luis Pinto is likely to preserve the core group that began the season and produced a solid goalless draw against Once Caldas. The approach blends experience with youth, aiming to exploit quick transitions and set pieces against Cali. The coaching staff will monitor fitness updates closely and balance the lineup to maintain pressure without overextending key players on a congested schedule.
