Llaneros (home)
- Llaneros FC have made a strong start to the new Primera A 2026 campaign, sitting 4th in the table with 5 points after 3 games.
- Their opening 2 matches both ended in 1-1 draws against Atletico Bucaramanga and Fortaleza FC.
- However, Nelson Gomez’s men have drawn their only home match in the league (1-1) and will be looking to find a first win on their home ground on Monday.
- They typically set up in a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 system, prioritizing defensive solidity while looking to catch the opposition on the break.
- Jimmy Medranda has been their creative spark, laying on 2 assists in 3 league games this season, while Carlos Cortez (2 goals in 3 Primera A 2026 games) remains Llaneros’ chief goal threat.
Rionegro Aguilas Doradas (away)
- Rionegro Aguilas Doradas need to pick up some momentum as soon as possible, with 1 point from 2 Primera A 2026 fixtures leaving them languishing in 15th.
- Juan David Nino took over as Aguilas’ head coach in January 2026 and has set his team up to be a more structured and possession-based side.
- Their two 2026 league games to date, a 0-0 draw with Deportivo Cali and a 2-1 defeat to Deportivo Pasto, both came at home, while they have failed to win in their last 5 in all competitions (D2, L3).
- Fabian Charales leads the line for Aguilas with 1 goal in 2 Primera A 2026 appearances, while Jorge Rivaldo (2 goals in 5 matches) and Andres Ricaurte (1 assist in 1 league game) provide additional attacking options from midfield.
