Colombian football: Liga BetPlay and Liga Femenina updates

Overview

Colombian football continues to navigate operational, security, and financial challenges during the 2026 season. Following previous disruptions caused by an earthquake and stadium violence, the Liga BetPlay has entered a decisive phase.

A highly anticipated superclásico between Atlético Nacional and Millonarios is scheduled at the Atanasio Girardot stadium. Atlético Nacional, currently in fourth place, faces injury setbacks with Alfredo Morelos and Nicolás Rodríguez sidelined, though the team may see James Rodríguez make his first potential start. Millonarios, in second place, will compete without Juan Guillermo Cuadrado.

América de Cali, the current league leader, is set to face Águilas Doradas at the Pascual Guerrero stadium. The club continues to manage internal momentum alongside ongoing reports of financial tensions and delayed player payments. Meanwhile, Once Caldas is preparing to host Atlético Bucaramanga in a critical match for top-eight positioning.

In the women’s league, the Liga Femenina final remains a focal point. Following scheduling controversies regarding El Campín stadium, the first leg was held in Tunja, where Deportivo Cali secured a 3-2 victory over Independiente Santa Fe. This result provides the ‘azucareras’ a significant advantage as they pursue a third consecutive title.
