Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Copiapó in 6th and Deportes Valdivia in 10th place.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
These teams have little in common geographically as Deportes Valdivia have to travel 1600 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Copiapó form and stats
4 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Copiapó, who have the most scored goals (31) in Primera B, have to build on here at Estadio Luis Valenzuela Hermosilla in the Primera B.
Copiapó enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Melipilla's place. The match ended 2-1 with J. Jaime and L. Pontigo (2) scoring. Before that match, a win away at Deportes Santa Cruz.
Manager E. Astorga felt very clever after L. Pontigo scored the winning goal against Melipilla, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 86th minute.
The Copiapó manager E. Astorga has got the team scoring with 19 from 8 home games in the league. Copiapó have conceded 13 from these games.
Deportes Valdivia form and stats
Deportes Valdivia have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Primera B, after 0-4-3 (7 played).
Home advantage was not enough for Deportes in their previous game, as they lost their Primera B-match, hosting Rangers, 0-1. Preceding that game, the 2-3 loss visiting Rangers's place.
Deportes were so close to getting something from the game against Rangers, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Deportes Valdivia have scored 8 goals in 7 league games away. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Deportes's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 12 goals from these trips.
