🚨 XIs ready: Nacional and Millonarios put it all on the line in the Copa | OneFootball

The Atanasio Girardot dresses up for the occasion this Wednesday for the "match of the year": the classic between Atlético Nacional and Millonarios for the CONMEBOL Sudamericana. The team led by Fabián Bustos arrives in Medellín with the urgency to reverse a devastating away statistic in 2026: three defeats and just one draw in four official outings.

Despite the fragility shown outside Bogotá —including losses to Bucaramanga, Pasto, and Inter Bogotá— the "Ambassador" trusts in its new three-center-back formation to stop the "Verdolaga" power. The duel promises to be a battle of hierarchy, with the face-off between Ospina and Novoa under the posts, and the anticipated clash of stars like Falcao and Morelos.

Bustos has been adamant: to qualify, Millonarios must brush perfection in tactics and fight for every detail in a historically hostile venue.
