We have reached the final stages of the 2019/20 Nicaragua Primera Division. With the regular Clausura league table complete, we now move to the finals and it begins with two playoff games. These are the quarter finals of the competition and the second match to be played is between CD Walter Ferretti and Jalapa ART.

This is a one off match and it will be played at the Estadio Olímpico del IND, the home of CD Walter Ferretti. This is because they finished highest in the table between the two teams having amassed a total of 30 points.

CD Walter Ferretti finished the league section with a 1-0 defeat at Managua FC. Although they would have wanted to have finished the league on a high, it was always going to be tough against the team which comfortably finished top of the table. However, that was the only defeat suffered by CD Walter Ferretti in their last 5 Nicaragua Primera Division games. They had won each of the previous 4 including 3 home victories against Real Estelí, Real Madriz and Deportivo Las Sabanas. The other win came away from home at Deportivo Ocotal.
