Everything is ready for the first match of the final of the BetPlay Dimayor Liga Apertura 2024 to be played between Atlético Bucaramanga and Independiente Santa Fe. The game will take place this Saturday, June 8, 2024 at the Alfonso López stadium in the department of Santander at 7:30 p.m. Colombia time.
The finalists of this first semester in the first category of Colombian soccer have just gotten their ticket last weekend, where by winning their matches they managed to access this stage. The local team needed to add three at a time and, in the same way, wait for Junior to lose to Millonarios in Bogotá, an unlikely result for many fans, but finally the ‘miracle’ was achieved and he is a finalist thanks to his invisible point obtained for being the first in the all against all.
The visiting team on the other side, decisively beat Deportes Tolima 1-2 in a game where the ‘Vinotinto y oro’ only needed to win to snatch the ticket from the ‘Cardenal’, but which logically was too big for them. Thus, Santa Fe qualified as the sole leader with 16 points.

A historic final that the ‘Leopards’ want to turn into a title
Atlético Bucaramanga experienced its best soccer night in its history to date, last Sunday, June 2. Those led by Venezuelan coach Rafael Dudamel managed to play in a Colombian soccer final for the first time after winning a resounding victory against Deportivo Pereira 3-1 at the Alfonso López stadium.
Although curiously everyone in Group A finished with eight points, the ‘Búcaros’ took first place after their competitive advantage achieved by being the leader of the table in the 19 rounds played in the round-robin event.
In front they will have a lion lying in wait. Santa Fe wants to reach double digits in local league titles and will have to look for a positive result in a very difficult place. However, his recent performances and numbers support him, since, stretched the number of games without defeat to seven and the number of games without conceding at least two goals to twelve.

To embroider your first star, you have to make the first hit at home.
Bucaramanga fans want to have a party at the stadium next Saturday when the first match of the finals is played in the territory of the ‘Beautiful City’. Atlético Bucaramanga must be able to take advantage in their home if they want to complicate Independiente Santa Fe, which is coming uphill in those home runs.
An important fact is that the local team established itself as the best of the entire tournament in this quarter. In the first stage of the BetPlay League Dimayor achieved seven wins, two draws and only one defeat. Achieving 23 of 30 points and being the team with the fewest goals conceded with just 10 in total. Thus, Dudamel must guide his boys to one last victory at home, in order to be closer to achieving his second title in Colombian soccer and the first in the history of Atlético Bucaramanga.
