Solid Defence, Modest Attack
Once Caldas won 2-0 away to Santa Fe in their latest Copa Colombia match 2 November 2026. The visitors were already ahead at half-time and had more shots - 14 to 10 - although Santa Fe had more dangerous attacks: 91 to 55.
Once Caldas are nearing the end of the Clausura in the race for a play-off place, sitting ninth with 24 points. They have been solid defensively, conceding just 0.7 goals per game over their last ten matches, while a run of three wins and two draws in their previous five matches points to good form. However, their scoring remains modest: they have averaged 1.1 goals over those ten matches and have not scored more than one goal in any of their last eight home games. This balance between a reliable defence and a restrained attack contributes to low-scoring matches.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Once Caldas are considered the favourites, but Rionegro Aguilas are unlikely to want to lose to a direct rival in the race for the play-offs. The hosts have scored no more than one goal in eight consecutive home matches, while each of their last seven home matches has seen under 2.5 goals. Rionegro Aguilas are not particularly prolific either, so an open game is unlikely. The editor's main pick is Total Goals - Under 2.5.
