This is the first time they will meet in 2023, as they have not yet faced each other in the Chilean tournament.

Betting on Cobresal
Cobresal achieved a 3-2 victory against Everton over the weekend, after having gone three games without a win in the Chilean league. What still looks a little weak is their defense, as they have only one clean sheet in seven games that has conceded 11 goals, averaging 1.57 goals per game.
Although it has not yet been able to make it back-to-back wins, it can boast three in the league, which is the third most in the league. Regardless of the result, they have been scoring in each of their games this year and that trend is likely to continue, especially playing at home.
The local team has not lost at home since September 2022, and registers six matches without defeats, with five victories in that period.
Probable lineup (4-1-4-1): Leandro Requena; Pablo Cárdenas, Diego Céspedes, Francisco Alarcón, Marcelo Jorquera; Alejandro Camargo; Gastón Lezcano, Walter Rueda, Leonardo Valencia, César Munder; Cecilio Waterman
Betting on Palestino
Palestino was also one of the privileged teams that managed to win their most recent league match. They beat Huachipato 2-1, and as a result now have a record of three wins, three draws and one defeat. The victory comes at a good time, since a day earlier they had lost 5-2 to Universidad Católica and had completed two matches without a win.
The aforementioned defeat took place in their last away game, so there will surely be a certain lack of confidence for this match, where they will also be away. So far in 2023 it has played three games in that capacity and won only one. It is also worth noting that the defense has conceded 70% of its total goals when playing away.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Cesar Rigamonti; Jose Bizama, Fernando Bizama, Fernando Meza, Cristián Suárez, Alan Riquelme; Fernando Cornejo, Agustín Farías, Misael Dávila, Bryan Carrasco; Maximiliano Salas, Jonathan Benítez
JefeBet Prediction
Palestino has not beaten Cobresal away since 2016, and here they can put an end to this negative statistic. They have performed very similarly so far in the league, but the tricolor looks stronger and in fact shows it by having one less loss than its rival. The possibility of both teams scoring is high, and they could complete Over (2.5).
Prediction: Palestino wins by a score of 1-2.
