Magallanes form and stats

Magallanes's results here at Estadio Municipal in the Primera Division have been very modest with 1 victory, 2 draws and 3 defeats. It's trouble wherever Magallanes are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

Magallanes's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Curico Unido (placed 14th).

A 2-2 scoreline against Cesar Vallejo before that one, played at their own home stadium in the Copa Sudamericana. This is expected to be a close game, with Magallanes perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Magallanes as a small favourite), we find 11 games. Magallanes has won 5 of these, drawn 3 and lost 3.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Magallanes here at Estadio Municipal in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 6 games). Magallanes have conceded 8 in these home matches.

Audax Italiano form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Audax Italiano so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-4 (win-draw-lose).

There might be some fixture complaints from Italiano as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous game, 1-2 against Colo-Colo. Sosa has bagged at least one goal for the away team four matches in a row. The competence!

A home win as expected against Blooming preceding that, in the Copa Sudamericana. So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Audax Italiano playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were 3 Audax Italiano wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 9 of this side's 12 most recent league rounds have ended with three or more goals.

In the opposite end, Audax Italiano have conceded 13 goals in their away games. When Italiano is visiting a side on the bottom half, 2 of 3 matches have ended with three or more goals. These are matches against Palestino, Coquimbo Unido, Curico Unido, Audax Italiano and Copiapo.
