The football year has been a rollercoaster for these contenders so far, highs and lows leading to mid-table places so far. Make ready for Cobresal - Unión Española!

Insights:
  • Cobresal have won significantly more corners at home than away.
  • Unión Española have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Chilean Cup. That game was also an away game, at Colo-Colo. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

These teams have little in common geographically as Unión Española have to travel 1000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Unión Española form and stats

There's been little loot from Unión Española's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 7 away games in the Primera Division. Unión Española only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Española have lost on their last two travels.

There might be some fixture complaints from Española as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Chilean Cup match against Colo-Colo (0-4). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Colo-Colo was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

A 0-1 loss hosting Colo-Colo before that.
