Venue: Estadio Bicentenario Municipal Nelson Oyarzún (12000 seats)

It's early days in the Primera Division and both Ñublense and Cobresal are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

Cobresal could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Copa Sudamericana game only four sleeps ago. That game, against Palestino, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Cobresal.

Cobresal have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
