Palestino form and stats

3 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Palestino have to build on here at Estadio Municipal de La Cisterna in the Primera Division.

In their previous game, the manager Sánchez led his Palestino to a defeat away at Colo-Colo. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Municipal de La Cisterna.

A victory at home before that one, as predicted. The team were huge favourites against Estudiantes Merida and won 1-0. The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Palestino handle that role? We have found 18 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 9 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats.

Sports bettors, take note: A review of the 11 most recent league games highlights that 9 of them had goals from both teams.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Palestino, as the Copa Sudamericana home game vs San Lorenzo is only four days away.

A decent goal production from Palestino in their home games so far, with 10 goals from 6 league matches. Palestino have conceded 10 from these games.

Ñublense form and stats

Playing away, Ñublense have won 1 game, drawn 2 and suffered 2 defeats in the Primera Division this season.

Ñublense might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Audax Italiano proved too strong as Ñublense slumped to a 2-5 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Bicentenario Municipal Nelson Oyarzún. As you can tell from the result, the match against Audax Italiano was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

A loss, in the Copa Libertadores away at Flamengo, earlier. Ñublense are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 6 draws and 2 defeats. From a total of 9 matches.

Take note! Both sides have scored at least once in 8 of this club's latest 10 league matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Ñublense are hosting Aucas in the Copa Libertadores only three days away.

The visitors have scored 3 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's not easy to score on Ñublense as they have only conceded 4 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Ñublense have won at least one point in the last 6 games (4-2-0) versus Palestino.
