After reaching the playoffs in Torneo Apertura, Deportes Tolima are hoping for the same in Torneo Finalizacion and they have been doing well so far, with 14 points from eight matches. This is enough to put Deportes Tolima in fourth place in the standings, but there are teams with fewer games played who could overtake them, including their next opponent America de Cali.
Meanwhile, Deportes Tolima will be without Jeison Lucumi in this game since he was sent off in the last round of the competition.
