MATCH PREVIEW

MAIN PREDICTION: AWAY WIN

 

Curico Unido are coming off a 4-2 loss against Palestino the last time out, and it’s clear they are trending in the wrong direction – they arrive at this game on a four-game losing run while conceding nine goals in that span, including two matches where they couldn’t find the back of the net. Perhaps their lone positive aspect is the fact that they’ve looked efficient at home, where they’ve lost just three league games all season long (W8, D1, L3).

Antofagasta are coming off a disappointing 1-0 home loss against Colo Colo the last time out, and that means they’ve won just once over their last five league matches. They’ve posted an uneven W4, D4, L5 record away from home, but they’re undefeated in their last two on enemy soil so they might be trending in the right direction after all.

Antofagasta are stronger in terms of both depth and quality, and that should be enough to give them the win here.

 

HEAD TO HEAD

Antofagasta are undefeated in their last five league games against Curico Unido (W3, D2).
