Unión Española form and stats

Unión Española have played three Primera Division home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Unión Española's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Magallanes (placed 11th).

A 1-1 draw away before that, with Audax Italiano the opponent.
