something that has not happened since America de Cali did it between 2019 and 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIn their last league match the ‘Embajador’ team won 2-1 against Envigado as visitors, thanks to goals from midfielder Larry V\u00e1squez and striker Beckham Castro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the Bogota club has not seen league action for two weekends, as it had to postpone the matches against Uni\u00f3n Magdalena and Am\u00e9rica due to external aspects, although it did play in the quarterfinals of the Copa Colombia and won both games versus Alianza Petrolera: 2-0 and 1-2.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe team coached by Alberto Gamero has six matches without losing, winning five of them. Their position is eighth, with 22 points, 14 goals scored, and 13 against.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nHowever, for the home match against Junior, they have fundamental absentees, since goalkeeper \u00c1lvaro Montero and striker Leonardo Castro were called up by the Colombian National Team for the Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why Bet on Junior?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Junior has had 2023 to forget, with two changes of coaches and looking for a miracle to avoid being eliminated again in the first phase of the Betplay League, as happened in the previous semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In their last match, they defeated Deportivo Cali 3-2 at home with goals by Carlos Bacca (2) and Jos\u00e9 Enamorado, so they are in tenth place with 21 points, one point behind their rival. This victory also served to break a four-game winless streak.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nTo be sure of a place in the playoffs, the team from Barranquilla must win at least 10 of the 12 remaining points, <\/strong>so getting at least a draw in the tough Bogota would be a good deal for Arturo Reyes’ team.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis team has excelled mainly in attack, especially when Jos\u00e9 Enamorado, Luis Gonz\u00e1lez, Deiber Caicedo, and Carlos Bacca, who has eight league goals, are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the participation of winger Enamorado is on hold for the match due to discomfort in one of his ankles. The good news is that midfielder Jhon V\u00e9lez has finished his suspension and will be available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other confirmed absentees are goalkeeper Santiago Mele, who is with the Uruguayan National Team, and defender Brayan Ceballos, who is with Colombia’s U-23 team. The presence of these two players with their countries enables defender Emanuel Olivera to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
