Curicó Unido Preview
The team coached by the Argentine, Damián Muñoz, has had a fairly regular performance so far since it excited its fans in the first match: in the debut match against Coquimbo it won by 1-0 thanks to Kennet Lara’s goal. However, in the last away match against Universidad Católica they lost by 3-1 in a game where they missed several opportunities.
It is expected that in this new opportunity, Curico Unido vs Audax Italiano, the albirrojos will win with personality at home, giving value to their new incorporations and being accurate in attack. It won’t be easy for them as they face an opponent that is undefeated so far.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Fabián Cerda; Christopher Barrera, Franco Bechtholdt, Ronald De la Fuente, Kennet Lara; Agustín Nadruz, Felipe Fritz, Mario Sandoval; Tobías Figueroa, Jason Flores, Federico Castro.
Audax Italiano Preview
Audax Italiano is currently in fifth place in Chile’s main tournament. Although it is too early to make predictions about the season, they say that what ends well also ends. In their first two games, the team led by Manuel Fernández has obtained four points and has also left a good feeling among its supporters.
The Santiago squad has put together a good team this season and, given the efforts of its directors, the team is expected to respond in the best possible way. The Curico Unido vs Audax Italiano match will be very important to prove that the previous exhibitions were no coincidence. It’s true, their most recent match against Copiapo at home was fantastic (3-0); however, to obtain long-term success in the league, having good away results is crucial.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Tomás Ahumada; Nicolás Fernández, Carlos Labrín, Fabián Torres, Roberto; Marcelo Díaz, Marco Antonio Collao, Matías Sepúlveda; Luis Riveros, Gonzalo Sosa, Michael Fuentes.
JefeBet Prediction
Considering their first duels, we believe that both teams will share the points in this Curico Unido vs Audax Italiano. In tournaments like this, early momentum can be very important in the development of the season.
Curicó has just gone through the motions, but they have the advantage of playing at home, where they are stronger. Audax, on the other hand, will not have an easy road ahead of them, as they are coming off a tremendous victory that raised the hopes of their fans.
Prediction: 1-1 draw.
