Pablo Peirano’s team has the opportunity to shake off very quickly the fall in the classic against Millonarios, which took away their undefeated record of eight games without losing. That 3-1 in the midst of carelessness and after winning 0-1 with the penalty goal converted by Hugo Rodallega is the precedent for a new duel in El Campín, where he hopes to win to leave his classification one step away.
León, which currently needs to validate its good campaign, has 24 points and can place second in the Apertura Tournament without being able to win against Patriotas. And it is urgent that they add three again after the 1-1 draws against Deportes Tolima and Águilas Doradas. His most recent victory was 2-0 against Fortaleza.
In the capital derby, the cardinal team did not have Juan Pablo Zuluaga, Andrés Mosquera Marmolejo and the Uruguayan Agustín Rodríguez due to injury. In addition, the Argentine Facundo Agüero is affected, another significant loss in this stretch of the championship. For his part, captain Daniel Torres indicated that they must “overcome the duel of the loss” against Millonarios and “correct what was not done well and go out to win on Sunday.”
