Tolima and Nacional meet in the Copa Libertadores group stage, with both Colombian and Uruguayan football represented in what is a genuine continental fixture with points on the line in Group B.

Tolima come into this match sitting top of Group B, and they have earned that position through a steady continental campaign. Their Copa Libertadores form has been the foundation of their group stage ambitions, even if domestic results have been mixed.

Nacional arrive in difficult shape. The Montevideo club have lost three of their last five matches across all competitions, including a 4-2 defeat to Universitario de Deportes in their previous Copa Libertadores outing. That result will have left their grip on second place in the group feeling less secure.

The reverse fixture between these two sides, played in April, ended 3-1 to Nacional. Tolima will be looking to settle that score on home soil, and with the group standings tight, three points here would carry real significance for either side.

Nacional's domestic form in the Uruguayan Primera Division has compounded their continental difficulties. Back-to-back league defeats heading into this fixture mean the pressure on their travelling squad is real.

For Tolima, a win would reinforce their position at the top of Group B. Their Copa Libertadores record this campaign gives them reason for confidence, and playing at home adds to that.

Read on for the full breakdown of where to watch Tolima vs Nacional, including TV channel and live stream information, kick-off time, team news, and head-to-head record.
