Concepción haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 367 minutes ago. L. Diaz scored that one.

No payout for Concepción in their previous match, an away game at Universidad Chile that ended in defeat 0-2. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Everton.

There will be little rest for Univ. Concepción after this match as they are travelling to Union La Calera for a Primera Division game in only three days.

Palestino form and stats

There's been little loot from Palestino's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 12 away games in the Primera Division. Palestino, who have the fewest scored goals (10) away in Primera Division, only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws. Impressively, the visitors are on a five-match winning run which they hope continue versus Univ. Concepción.

Palestino had fun at their own home (Estadio Municipal Alcaldesa Ester Roa Rebolledo) last time out, beating Curicó Unido 4-2. J. Benítez (2), B. Carrasco and L. Acevedo scored. Preceding that game was the away victory against Deportes Iquique with the score of 2-0.

As you can tell from the result, the match against Curicó Unido was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

After this away game Palestino return home for a Primera Division game against Union Espanola. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Palestino as they have only managed to score 10 times from 12 away games in the league. 16 goals have been conceded by Palestino in these games.
