The last great celebration for Santa Fe

To find Unión’s last victory, you have to go back to the 2024 Copa de la Liga. That night at the 15 de Abril, captain Claudio Corvalán became the hero and, with a header in the 44th minute of the second half, sealed the definitive 1-0 that still echoes in the fans’ memory.

With this backdrop, Unión will look to reaffirm their home advantage and strike a blow against one of the giants, aiming to keep all three points at home and continue fueling their strong run in the tournament.
