Unión Española enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Nublense's place. The match ended 1-0 with Acevedo scoring. The victory against Nublense came after Acevedo's winning goal. The Unión Española manager Núñez was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 81st minute.
Ahead of that game, a home victory hosting Barnechea in the Chilean Cup. This is expected to be a close game, with Unión Española perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

A decent goal production from Española in their home games so far, with 13 goals from 8 league matches. From these home matches, Unión Española have conceded only 7 goals.
