Once Caldas host Deportivo Cali in a Primera A fixture with both clubs needing points as the Colombian Clausura season gathers pace.
Once Caldas sit 10th in the Clausura standings under coach Hernan Herrera, and their recent form has been inconsistent. A cup win over Alianza FC is their most recent result, but a 2-0 league defeat to Chico FC before that underlines the work still to be done.
Deportivo Cali arrive under Rafael Dudamel having drawn 1-1 with Millonarios in their last league outing, though a 3-0 cup loss to Atletico Nacional earlier in the week casts a shadow over their preparations.
Cali have also had to contend with serious off-field distress. Midfielder Johan Martinez was assaulted and threatened at gunpoint by alleged supporters while travelling with family in Cali, an incident that drew swift condemnation from the club and has unsettled the squad.
Both sides are separated by just one place in the Clausura table, making this a fixture neither can afford to lose. Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch Once Caldas vs Deportivo Cali live.
