Teams Preview
Colombia Preview
Colombia entered this contest on a difficult run after four losses in their last five outings, including defeats to Canada, Argentina, Dominican Republic, and Argentina again. Their only recent bright spot was an 89-86 win over Nicaragua. They remain a team searching for consistency, especially on the defensive end, where they have conceded over 80 points in four of their last five games.
They are led by Braian Angola Rodas, the top scorer of the qualifying cycle with 17.2 points per game. Alongside him, Andres Ibarguen, averaging 14.2 points, supplies major interior presence and leads the team in rebounds with 8.3 per game.
Colombia’s recent defensive struggles - conceding 82, 84, 94, and 98 in four of their last five matches - will be a major concern against a Venezuela team that thrives in structured half-court execution.
Venezuela Preview
Venezuela, meanwhile, arrive in better rhythm, securing recent wins over Panama, Chile and Argentina. Although they suffered losses to Puerto Rico and Canada, they have looked steadier overall, especially in close games. Their defensive structure remains the backbone of their success, holding opponents under 70 in multiple contests.
They counter with their star performer Michael Carrera, who leads them with 13.6 points and is also their top rebounder at 6.4 per game. Support comes from veteran Nestor Colmenares, second in scoring with 9.5 points, and their experienced backcourt featuring David Cubillan and Yohanner Sifontes.
This will be a physical battle, but Venezuela’s discipline, experience, and stronger recent form give them a noticeable edge heading into Cali.

COLOMBIA vs VENEZUELA
Winning PredictionVenezuela enter with momentum, better defensive consistency, and a superior head-to-head history. Colombia have individual firepower in Angola and Ibarguen, but their defensive trend is worrying. If Colombia cannot control Venezuela’s physicality and prevent second-chance points, the visitors are likely to dictate tempo.
