The hoodoo Colón need to end on the road against Almirante Brown | OneFootball

Every time Colón leaves Santa Fe, it seems to turn into a different team. So this Saturday, starting at 3:30 p.m., it will have a new chance to break that pattern when it faces Almirante Brown in Isidro Casanova on Matchday 16 of the Primera Nacional.

The feeling left by the draw against Mitre is still lingering. Not only because of the points that slipped away, but also because the Sabalero once again missed an important chance to cement its place near the top of the standings. Ezequiel Medrán’s team showed moments of control, but ended up wrapped in a mix of frustration and helplessness that it will now try to shake off away from home. And that is where the real problem appears.

Colón’s other mission against Almirante Brown

While at the Brigadier López it has built a footballing and emotional fortress, far from Santa Fe the story changes too much. The level drops, confidence wavers, and the results offer little support. The stat is telling: just one win all season playing away from home. The campaign has started to split into two completely different versions. One solid, aggressive, and commanding when it plays in front of its own fans. Another far more vulnerable when it has to go out and impose itself away from home. In its last three matches on the road, it drew two and lost one.

That is why the clash against the Fragata will not be just another match. It represents a real test to see how ready Colón is to truly compete. Because in long tournaments like the Primera Nacional, no team manages to stay near the top relying only on home form.

Medrán knows it. His players do too. The table is starting to tighten up, and each round is beginning to carry more weight. In that context, getting points in Isidro Casanova could mean much more than three points: it could be the start of a response the team urgently needs.
