MATCH PREVIEW

Audax Italiano has proved football pundits wrong with an impressive display this season in Chile Division 1. The team is tied in second place with Union La Calera, with 8 points in 4 matches. They are one of the 5 unbeaten squads in the tournament as well. Their run this year includes a win against 3-time-champion Universidad Catolica, as well as draws at O’Higgins and Union La Calera. Manager Pablo Sanchez has given the team an interesting counter attack identity, which helps outsmart other Chilean sides. Their 4 goals this season have been scored by 4 different players. They have also improved their defensive struggles from last year when they conceded 50 goals. This season, they have ended with a clean sheet on 2 of their games. Recently promoted Deportes Melipilla is still getting used to the top division. They surprised Union Espanola in Round 2, but also suffered to heartbreaking losses to Curico Unido and Palestino. Audax Italiano will continue to surprise fans in Chile and over the world with another home win, this time against recently promoted Deportes Melipilla.
