Nacional vs Millonarios, the two most winning teams in the history of Colombian professional soccer. Rivalry for titles, players and other factors that they have shared throughout their history. In addition, their fans reach every corner of the country, passionately showing their love for green and blue, representing the most passionate fans.
Regardless of the moment of both squads, it will always represent a separate duel, with the desire of wanting one to achieve victory over their rival, especially if they visit. The purslane will arrive with a large part of their repertoire, to maintain the rhythm of victories, after a turbulent start to the year, where the relationship with the fans was not the best.
For its part, Millonarios arrived in Medellín with an alternate roster, but full of players who have added competition pace and minutes, being taken into account by Gamero. Total reserve for the objective: advance to the group stage of the Copa Libertadores. Despite this, the strategist is fully confident of achieving a good result at Atanasio, so as not to neglect the League, where they have played just four games, with a balance of three wins and one loss.
The Atanasio Girardot became a regular spot for Millonarios, where they have achieved good results on their most recent visits. They have gone undefeated in six games, between the League and the Super League, where they have not lost, adding three wins and three draws. They have not lost in Antioquia, against Nacional, since September 2017.
The record between Nacional and Millonarios is 284 games, of which 108 have been won by the ambassadors, while the purslane were victorious 83 times and a total of 93 draws, in all the competitions played.
Alberto Gamero reserved the 10 starters against Mineiro, with the exception of Montero, who will surely be the starter.
Probable lineup: Montero; Alba, Vanegas, Arias, Murillo; Moreno, Arevalo, Pereira; Paredes, Uribe, Valencia.
