MATCH PREVIEW

MAIN PREDICTION: HOME WIN

 

Universidad Catolica are returning home after escaping with a 2-2 away draw at Audax Italiano in their most recent league match. Universidad Catolica remain a serious title contender and enter this game as one of the best sides on both ends of the pitch, since they currently own the best attack and the joint best defence in the league. Plus, they have also posted an excellent W8, D2, L1 record when playing at home in the league.

Santiago Wanderers are coming off a 1-0 home win over O’Higgins the last time out, and that result means they’re sitting in mid-table while losing just once over their last seven league contests (W3, D3 and L1). Santiago Wanderers are far from a reliable team, however, as they still own the joint worst defence in the league with 41 goals and have also posted a less-than-inspiring W2, D3 and L7 mark on the road.

Universidad Catolica are dominant at home, while Santiago Wanderers have been rather poor when playing away from home. Expect the hosts to win here.

 

HEAD TO HEAD

The recent H2H record between both sides indicates parity, as the last five league meetings between both clubs have registered two wins for each side and a draw.
