With the 0-2 this Thursday over Deportivo Cali in Palmaseca in the Valle del Cauca 292 classic, América de Cali has achieved three consecutive victories and confirmed that its football is improving in the Liga BetPlay I-2021 League.
That result allowed him to get into the eight for the first time, although it remains to be developed all day to know if he will stay there, since Medellín and Junior could evict him if they win their respective meetings of the weekend.
The scarlet box will return to the scene on date 13 with its visit to Once Caldas in Manizales, where it will not be able to count on its two titular central defenders: Pablo Ortiz and Marlon Torres.
Ortiz accumulated five yellow cards in the classic and will automatically have a suspension date.
For his part, Torres would be out of the courts for 15 days, since this Friday morning he underwent reconstructive surgery on his lip, after receiving a kick from Angelo Rodríguez in a verdiblanco attack in the classic.
This indicates that the Atlantic defender would miss the game in Manizales and then the one that faces the scarlets with DIM at Pascual Guerrero on date 14.
It should be remembered that Jerson Malagón also suffered a home accident and still has two more weeks of disability. Given the departure of Felipe Jaramillo, who was the one who alternated as central, it is likely that coach Juan Cruz Real will use Chilean Rodrigo Ureña and Kevin Andrade in that position.
