Independiente Santa Fe are all set to host Atletico Bucaramanga in match week nine of the Categoria Primera A 2025. The hosts are in the fourth spot after starting the new season on a decent note. But the same cannot be said about the visitors as they are in the 17th spot, winning only one of the eight league matches.
Santa Fe have won four of their eight league matches played as of now. They will be at home for their upcoming Categoria Primera A fixture. Santa Fe are also coming in after winning their previous league game, which was against Once Caldas. It was a close game and Santa Fe scored a goal despite a poor attack rate and went on to win the fixture.
Atletico Bucaramanga will be away from home and will be under pressure. Although the season has started some days back, they have only been able to win a single game. They are coming in after losing their last league game against Deportivo Pereira. Bucaramanga conceded a late goal and lost the match.
