Huachipato form and stats

Huachipato's struggle is real here at Estadio CAP with only 13 points collected from 13 Primera Division games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-7-4. All in all it has been a very rough period for Huachipato who hasn’t won a league-game in their last eleven attempts. Their previous win was against Melipilla, 73 days ago.

Huachipato drew their last game, 2-2 away at La Serena (placed 11th). Late drama in the game against La Serena as Huachipato were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until J. Gutiérrez popped out and made it level in the 90th minute. The hometeam coach M. Salas Saieg made a successful contribution in the game against La Serena, bringing on J. Gutiérrez who scored the equalizer in the 2-2 draw.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Audax Italiano that ended 0-0.

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 Huachipato have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 15 games) they have won five times, drawn eight and lost two.

The manager M. Salas Saieg will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Union La Calera in only four days.

Huachipato aren't scoring a lot here at Estadio CAP in the league, with only 10 goals from 13 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Huachipato's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 14 times.
