Huachipato Preview
Huachipato made its debut with a 1-3 win over Universidad de Chile, and this gives the team hope for a good tournament after last year’s failure. It finished with 10 wins, 5 ties and 15 losses, being the team with the fourth-highest number of matches lost in 30 encounters.
They will now face their first home challenge, and it promises to be an interesting one, as the team performed well last season in their home matches. Huachipato won most of their home games playing at home, with a record of seven wins, two draws and six defeats.
Probable lineup (4-3-1-2): Gabriel Castellón; Nicolás Baeza, Renzo Malanca, Benjamín Gazzolo, Joaquín Gutiérrez; Jimmy Martínez, Claudio Sepúlveda, Javier Altamirano; Brayan Palmezano; Maximiliano Rodríguez, Cris Martínez.
Cobresal Preview
Cobresal was also one of the seven lucky teams to win their first game in the Chilean League, defeating Union La Calera 3-1. After all the progress this team has shown in recent years, it is no surprise that it is off to a good start.
The last game it lost was in October against O’Higgins by a 1-0 score, and ever since then it has won its last three matches. One of those victories came in their last away game, when it defeated Universidad de Chile by a 3-4 score.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Leandro Requena; Pablo Cárdenas, Diego Céspedes, Francisco Alarcón, Marcelo Jorquera; Nelson Sepúlveda, Alejandro Camargo, Luis Vasquez; Gastón Lezcano, Cecilio Waterman, César Munder.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams got off to strong starts, and both seem to have pleased and won over their fans, but this match could be a tough one for them.
However, considering the numbers in the most recent meetings between the two at Huachipato’s home, the home team seems to have the advantage, because it has only lost one of the last 10 encounters of this series.
Prediction: Huachipato win by a score of 1-0.
