Santiago Morning form and stats

Santiago Morning's struggle is real here at Estadio Municipal de La Pintana with only 12 points collected from 13 Primera B games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-6-5.

A nice win for Santiago Morning last time playing, versus Copiapo. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with J. Castillo and M. Orellana scoring for the victors. Prior to that, an away loss at Rangers.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Santiago as they are travelling to their away game against San Luis in the Primera B. That match is four days after this one.

Ñublense form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ñublense, who have the the best goal difference (+12) in Primera B, so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-5 (win-draw-lose).

Ñublense play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting Deportes Santa Cruz (placed 15th).

A new game in only three days for Ñublense, the Primera B home match versus Deportes Temuco. Busy days.

Ñublense have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 10 league away games 10 goals have been scored. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Ñublense have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
