This is a huge game for both teams, who aim to turn things around after failing to qualify for Qatar 2022 last year. Los Cafeteros go into this clash as favorites, but La Vinotinto likes their chances to pull off a shock.

Colombia are starting a new process under Nestor Lorenzo hoping to leave behind their struggles. Venezuela, on the other hand, rely on Fernando Batista as Nestor Pekerman shockingly left his post in March.
