The 2024-II season of the Liga Betplay Dimayor has reached its most crucial stage: the Quadrangular. This unique format, introduced to accommodate the tight schedule and various stadium events, has added excitement and unpredictability to Colombia’s top soccer competition.
Due to the tight schedule and the need to complete the final before the Christmas holidays, Dimayor, Colombia’s soccer governing body, has had to be creative with the scheduling. Matches will be played on weekdays and even some weekends, ensuring that the quadrangular scenario does not clash with other events scheduled at the various stadiums.
Millonarios has been the standout team in Group A, securing a perfect record with three wins from three games. Their impressive form has seen them take a commanding lead at the top of the group standings. Just behind Millonarios is Atletico Nacional, who have accumulated six points from their three games. Although they suffered a setback with a defeat, their two wins have kept them firmly in contention for the top spot.
In Group B of the Liga Betplay Dimayor 2024-II quadrangular stage, Deportes Tolima has taken control of the group, with an impressive run of two wins and one draw in their first three matches. However, the race for the top is wide open, with Junior de Barranquilla struggling to find their form.
Below, we bring you a preview of the four matches that will be played on Day 4 of the Betplay Dimayor 2024-II League Quadrangular.

America de Cali is in a precarious situation, sitting at the bottom of Group B with just one point in three games. Their defensive weaknesses have been exposed, conceding three goals in the quadrangular phase, but with only one goal scored, clearly demonstrating their problems in all lines of play.If America can tighten up at the back, they have the firepower to cause an upset against group leader Tolima.
America is coming off a 1-0 loss to Junior, a 1-1 draw against Once Caldas, and, in their most recent game, a 1-0 loss to Tolima.
Tolima, on the other hand, has been the surprise package of the quadrangular stage. With a pragmatic approach and a solid defensive unit, they have not conceded a goal in three games played. Their ability to get results has been impressive, but they will need to be more clinical in front of goal if they are to secure their place in the final, as they have only managed to score two goals so far.
Tolima is coming off wins over Junior and America, both by 1-0 scorelines and will be looking to replicate that this matchday to secure the top spot in the group.
For this match, our prediction is a win for Tolima.
America vs. Tolima Betting Pick: Tolima
Liga Betplay Dimayor 2024-II: Quadrangular Matchday 4 – Junior vs. Once Caldas
When? | Sunday, December 1 at 6:30 PM ET, 5:30 PM CST, 4:30 PM MT, and 3:30 PM PT |
Where? | Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez |

The clash between Junior de Barranquilla and Once Caldas promises to be an exciting encounter. Junior, the home team, finds itself in a precarious position, needing nothing short of a miracle to keep alive its hopes of claiming first place in the group. The team has accumulated one win, one draw, and one loss so far, and depending on a win for them and a loss for Tolima, certain results are needed.
Junior beat America in their Quadrangular opener by 1-0, then they lost to Tolima by 0-1, while they drew 2-2 against Once Caldas in their most recent match.
On the other hand, Once Caldas has been a resilient unit, defying expectations and proving to be a tough nut to crack. Their defensive solidity has been the foundation of their success, but their offensive prowess has often been questioned. They have three goals for and three goals against in their three games played, where they have drawn all of them, so whatever happens this matchday, they will not be able to fight for the top of Group B.
Once Caldas drew, as we mentioned, against Junior, with a score of 2-2 in their most recent match.
For this match, our prediction is a 1-0 win for Junior.
Junior vs. Once Caldas Betting Pick: Junior
Liga Betplay Dimayor 2024-II: Quadrangular Matchday 4 – Santa Fe vs. Pasto
When? | Monday, December 2 at 6:30 PM ET, 5:30 PM CST, 4:30 PM MT, and 3:30 PM PT |
Where? | Estadio Nemesio Camacho El CampÃn |
Where can I watch it? | Fanatiz USA, ViX, and Win Sports |
Santa Fe has struggled to find consistency this season, with their offensive prowess often overshadowed by defensive lapses. However, their home form has been a bright spot, and they will look to capitalize on that advantage. Likewise, it is fair to mention that this Cuadrangular has been truly awful for the team, as they have lost all three games they have played, failing to score a single goal and conceding seven in this period.
In their most recent match, Santa Fe lost to Pasto with a score of 0-1.
On the other hand, Pasto has been a tough nut to crack, with their disciplined approach making them a difficult opponent for any team. They will depend on their counterattacking prowess and the goal-scoring exploits of Daniel Moreno and Santiago Tréllez, who have been in good form this season.
In this Quadrangular, Pasto has accumulated one win and two losses and they have absolutely nothing at stake in this match, as no matter what happens, they will not be able to catch Millonarios at the top.
For this match, our prediction is a win for Santa Fe.
Santa Fe vs. Pasto Betting Pick: Santa Fe
