Betting on Cobresal
Cobresal made a strong start with a 3-1 victory over Unión La Calera on the opening day, but their recent 2-1 defeat to Huachipato has cast doubt on their consistency. However, they can take comfort in the fact that they have lost only three of their last 10 matches across all competitions.
The Immortals, fresh off an impressive first home game of the season, will host again and aim to maintain their winning streak from last season. Cobresal boasts three consecutive home wins and, with their fifth-best home record from last season, they may have the confidence to keep the streak alive.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Leandro Requena; Marcelo Jorquera, Francisco Alarcón, Diego Céspedes, Pablo Cárdenas; Luis Vasquez Reyes, Alejandro Camargo; Nelson Sepúlveda; César Munder, Cecilio Waterman, Gastón Lezcano.
Betting on Copiapó
Copiapó is facing challenges following its promotion to the First Division, and its performances in the first two rounds suggest that it is still adapting.
They have suffered two consecutive losses, 2-5 to Colo Colo and 3-0 to Audax, leaving them in last place at #16. The defense has been a major weakness so far, with a league-high eight goals conceded, averaging four per game.
In this match, they will play on the road, which has not been their strong suit. During their promotion campaign, they lost eight of their 16 away matches, accounting for 80% of their total losses that season.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Richard Leyton; Jens Buss, Diego García, Juan Sills, David Tati; Marcos Medel, Juan Jose Jaime; Iván Rozas, Jorge Luna, Felipe Reynero; Manuel López.
JefeBet Prediction
Copiapó’s lackluster start and little experience in the top flight make them the underdogs for this match. Cobresal, on the other hand, looks like a strong team, especially when playing at home, so a win for them will not be a surprise.
Prediction: Cobresal wins by a score of 2-1.
