It's advantage Ñublense so far with their 1st position in the Primera B table, welcoming Copiapó who are placed 9th.

Insights:
  • Ñublense has the the best goal difference (+14) in Primera B
  • Copiapó has the most scored goals (46) in Primera B

Ñublense have less rest than Copiapó in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Primera B game only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Barnechea.

These teams have little in common geographically as Copiapó have to travel 1200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Ñublense form and stats

Ñublense, who have the the best goal difference (+14) in Primera B, have been outstanding at home so far in the Primera B with 10 wins, 1 draw and only 1 loss.

A good away victory last time out for Ñublense, who won 4-2 against Barnechea (placed 13th). Before that game, the home loss against Deportes Temuco with the scoreline 1-2.

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

The match schedule is unforgiving for Ñublense as they have a new game in only four days, a Primera B match thankfully also at home. Union San Felipe are visiting.

The Ñublense manager J. García has got the team scoring with 26 from 12 home games in the league. Ñublense have conceded 12 in these home matches.

Two travels in a row for Copiapó, whose manager E. Astorga could celebrate last time after the Primera B win against San Marcos. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Santiago Morning wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

The schedule is very tough for Copiapó now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Primera B game at Cobreloa is waiting in only three days.
