Atletico Nacional: could snatch the place in the final from Millonarios at home.

Millionaires: It depends on himself, but he is obliged to win the six points and reach 11 units and keep the place in the final, since he was the best team in the general phase and no team can beat him in case of a tie in points. If he draws with Nacional, he needs a victory for Bucaramanga in Barranquilla to define his luck on the last date, but depending on what happens in Nacional vs. Junior.
Junior: He is also obliged to get the six remaining points and that there is a tie between Millonarios and Nacional.
Bucaramanga: He must win the two remaining games, against Junior and Millonarios, and that Hernán Darío Herrera’s team does not add more points.
