Betting on O’Higgins
The team coached by Pablo De Muner, from Argentina, has had a poor performance so far, with only two out of five games won. They started the season with the right foot by winning against Colo Colo and Magallanes. However, their performance has gotten worse, causing them to draw their last match against Copiapo by 2-2.
During the O’Higgins vs Curico Unido match, it is expected that O’Higgins show their true potential in front of their fans, and give the spotlight to figures such as Fabián Hormazábal, who scored a great goal that made them draw their match against Copiapo in the 90+7th minute.
Possible Lineup (4-5-1): Ignacio González; Fabián Hormazábal, Juan Fuentes, Nicolás Thaller, Ronald Guzmán; Valentín Larralde, Diego Fernández, Esteban Moreira, Pablo Hernández, Matías Marín; Matías Donoso.
Betting on Curico Unido
Curico Unido currently holds the 13th position in the Chilean Primera Division. Although there is a long way to go in this season, things are getting darker for them, since the team led by Damián Muñoz has only won two out of their first six games.
The team led by Muñoz’ has received several goals, and they may lose the advantage over its direct rivals if they keep such poor performance.
The O’Higgins vs Curico Unido match will be key to boos their fans’ confidence, since they lost their last match against Cerro Porteno by 1-0 in Copa Libertadores, thus getting out of competition in the second round (the series ended 2-0).
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Fabian Cerda; Augusto Barrios, Franco Bechtholdt, Omar Merl, Ronald De la Fuente; Mario Sandoval, Agustin Nadruz, Yerko Leiva; Federico Castro, Cristian Zavala, Diego Coelho.
JefeBet Prediction
Considering their first clashes, we believe that O’Higgins vs Curico Unido will end up being a draw match. Despite O’Higgins advantage as the local team, they should not overplay their hand after loosing twice at home.
Curico Unido seeks to get to the top, given that, from now on, they will have to settle only for the local tournament. O’Higgins, on the other hand, bears the responsibility of proving their consistency and worthiness to compete in the Chilean Primera Division. This match will certainly be a hard-fought clash, where the coaches will experiment until they find their team’s ideal formula.
Prediction: 1-1 draw
