Unión Magdalena has been a big surprise at the start of the tournament in Colombia; being the undefeated leader of the championship and with Ricardo Márquez as a great figure in the competition.
Millonarios, for its part, continues on its upward curve in a process that has been going on for more than two years with coach Alberto Gamero, who hopes to (finally) celebrate a title.
Unión Magdalena and Millonarios will meet this Sunday, July 31 at the Sierra Nevada stadium of Santa Marta in the best game of Matchday 5 of the Categoría Primera A.

Why Bet on Unión Magdalena
The leader of the tournament, undefeated in four games with 3 wins and 1 draw, the top scorer in the championship (4), the best striker (7), and the second best goal difference (+3), are data to take into account.
Unión is a team that has shown us both extremes. Last semester they were last, playing very poorly and its relegation in December was almost certain. However, in this tournament, they had a 180° change that has them dreaming of permanence and that has two names: Ricardo Márquez and David Ferreira.
The first is the striker, who returned after a bad experience in (precisely) Millonarios where he scored 7 goals in 2 years. Now he is showing all his talent; as 4 goals and 1 assist in 4 games have him as one of the best in the tournament.
The second is the coach, who is having his first experience on the bench. They have something in common: they are both from Santa Marta and have a great sense of belonging to the city and the club; essential at this time when people who put the team on their shoulders are most needed.
Why Bet on Millonarios
Alberto Gamero has been coaching Millonarios for two and a half years. At the end of this tournament, it will be 3 years, something unusual for a coach in Colombian soccer. There the presidents want immediate results, and Gamero has not had them. The closest was a final in 2021.
That is why this may be the last chance for the coach, who was already a champion with this club as a player in 1988. The team has been in a constant process, playing well, but in the end, they always run out of gas and lack those players for the important moments.
In this semester they tied the first two games (Pasto and Bucaramanga) and won the classic against Nacional (1-2) and Envigado (1-0), showing that upward curve, and beating Unión in Santa Marta, and what means winning on the Colombian Caribbean Coast, Millonarios would be leading and hitting the table.
Final Betting Analysis: Unión Magdalena vs. Millonarios
It will be a great match between Unión Magdalena and Millonarios, looking to keep the victory and the lead, and there will be expectations to see what Ricardo Márquez can do and if the people of Bogota will be hurt for having wasted that scorer. We believe that victory will go to Unión Magdalena.
At MyBookie.ag we find that Millonarios is the clear favorite of the match with a Moneyline of -116, while Unión Magdalena has +330 and the draw is at +230.
Go for a straight win of Unión Magdalena in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 on the win at +330, you will gain $330 for a total payout of $430.
