Competition: Sat 29.February
Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)
Venue: Estadio El Cobre (18000 seats)

Only a few games have been played in the Primera Division so far, with Cobresal placed 11th and Deportes Iquique sitting in the 18th position.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

These teams have little in common geographically as Deportes Iquique have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Cobresal form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Cobresal's two home games in the Primera Division so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Estadio El Cobre.

Cobresal faced defeat in their previous match, away at Huachipato (0-1). In the match before that, Cobresal hosted Everton and drew the game 1-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Cobresal have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eleven games) they have won nine times, drawn one and lost one.

Early season league goal statistics from Cobresal's 2 home games: 3 goals, 2 conceded.

Deportes Iquique form and stats

It's not happening yet for Deportes Iquique on their Primera Division travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three has not been a lucky number for Deportes Iquique as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Everton match. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on E. Guerrero, the Deportes Iquique manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

There might be some fixture complaints from Deportes Iquique as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Primera Division match against Universidad Católica (1-3). A 0-4 loss hosting Antofagasta before that.

We have checked recent matches where Deportes Iquique have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 17 games were three victories, two draws and twelve defeats.

Deportes Iquique find the net regularly in their away games. 3 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. For Deportes Iquique, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's two Cobresal victories, two draws and six Deportes Iquique wins. Over/under statistics; five of these games ended with three goals or more, five matches with two goals or less.
