Atlético Nacional vs Deportivo Cali

This Copa Colombia round-of-16 tie decides who reaches the quarterfinals, and it's higher-stakes than planned: after an earthquake wrecked Colombia's football calendar, Dimayor scrapped the two-legged format for this round, turning it into a single, winner-takes-all match. Atlético Nacional hosts only because it finished better placed in the league table than Deportivo Cali, so there's no aggregate cushion to fall back on. Nacional arrives with something to prove: Deportivo Cali beat them 1-0 in their last league meeting, Juan Dinenno heading home the winner while goalkeeper Pedro Gallese made six saves to snap Nacional's unbeaten run. Cali will lean again on that pair, plus top scorer Steven Rodríguez. Nacional's attack is thinner than it should be, with Alfredo Morelos and Cristian Arango both sidelined through injury, leaving Matheus Uribe and Edwin Cardona to create. Add a closed-door Atanasio Girardot, a sanction stemming from last year's Copa Colombia final violence, and this promises an eerily quiet, tense night. Our prediction: 1-1
