This Tuesday, July 12, the second Matchday of the Torneo Finalización of Colombia begins with great and important matches, where the one between Junior and Atlético Nacional stands out.
Precisely Nacional, current champions, will go to Barranquilla to face Junior in a match between two of the best teams in the Colombian league and which is already a classic for many of its fans.
Millonarios and Atlético Bucaramanga, two teams that last semester were fighting in the finals, will meet again in Bogotá in search of their first victory.
In Ibagué we will also have a great match between Deportes Tolima and Deportivo Cali, two teams that want to be champions and that suffered some hard blows in the previous tournament.
The DIM wants to win at home but for that, they will have to beat Patriotas, who was one of the two teams that won on the first Matchday and who dreams of saving themselves from relegation.

Junior had a very bad start, losing to Patriotas 1-0 in Tunja. In addition, Juan Cruz Real lost his most important card: Miguel Ángel Borja. The striker traveled to Argentina to sign with River Plate and the coach will once again use Fernando Uribe in attack; while the return of Carlos Bacca, the club’s idol who would come back after several years in European football, is in wait.
On the sides of Nacional, it is still uncertain what they will put on the field this Wednesday. The starters have already returned to training after a well-deserved rest after the title, but Hernán Darío Herrera could once again use the substitutes and youth players who tied with Cortuluá over the weekend (1-1). The one who will not be is Giovanni Moreno, whose contract was not renewed. This was an event that has the fans very upset

It was not the best start for Millonarios, who tied 1-1 with Deportivo Pasto at El Campín. The Embajadores have in their favor that their reinforcement, Luis Carlos Ruiz, scored the goal, showing why they brought him, however, the team continues with the same shortcomings of the last tournament: generating many actions but not scoring.
On the sides of Atlético Bucaramanga, this will be their debut, since the first Matchday, against Rionegro Águilas, they could not play because the Copa América Femenina is taking place in their stadium. The Leopardos had a great tournament last semester, reaching the finals, and in this one, they hope to at least repeat that achievement. For that they were reinforced with Gustavo Torres, Brayan Palacios and José Adolfo Valencia.

Great game at the Manuel Murillo Toro stadium. The current runner-up in Colombian soccer, Deportes Tolima, will try to remove that nail and be champions this semester. On the first Matchday, they achieved an important draw against DIM (1-1), although they are still hurt after the humiliating elimination in the Copa Libertadores against Flamengo (8-1).
On the sides of Deportivo Cali, this will be their first match since like Atlético Bucaramanga, their stadium is being used for the Copa América Femenina. The most notable change in the Azucarero team was in the technical bench: Mayer Candelo replaced Rafael Dudamel after the surprising departure of the Venezuelan coach after some comments that the board did not like. The previous semester they could not qualify for the finals, being penultimate, in addition to being eliminated from the Copa Libertadores and later from the Copa Sudamericana.
Deportes Tolima vs. Deportivo Cali Betting Pick: Deportes Tolima

Deportivo Independiente de Medellín almost achieved a great victory on the first Matchday against Tolima but got a good away draw (1-1). David González, the new coach, passed the test in his first experience, but now it will be his turn at the Atanasio Girardot Stadium to round off what he has accomplished.
Patriotas is going to have a very difficult semester. They are fighting in the relegation table and have bought half a ticket to go to the second division. Coach José Eugenio ‘Cheché’ Hernández will have to do everything possible to save the Tunja team, and at least it started well since in the first game they beat Junior 1-0 at home with a goal by Edward Bolaños at the end. To continue in this fight, they will have to do something that has never been achieved in their history: beat the DIM in Medellín.
