Boyacá Chicó vs Atlético Nacional
Estadio La Independencia
2026
Match Preview
Boyacá Chicó host Atlético Nacional in a fixture that still carries plenty of weight, even as a delayed Matchday 1 clash rescheduled after a cycling event disrupted Tunja back in July. Nacional sit second on 12 points, chasing leaders América de Cali, while Chicó are rock bottom with just two points from eight matches and deep in relegation trouble.
Under new coach Lucas González, who arrived hoping to build a squad capable of chasing Copa Libertadores glory, Nacional have found form, capped by a 5-1 rout of Alianza in their last league outing. Chicó have managed only two points all season, the division's worst return, and take the field short on confidence. History backs Nacional too: winners in 12 of the last 19 meetings and unbeaten in 11 of the last 13, though the sides drew 1-1 in October 2025.
Given Nacional's momentum against Chicó's struggles, expect the visitors to leave Tunja with the points. Our prediction: 1-2
