Universidad Católica form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo as Universidad Católica, who have the most scored goals (52) in Primera Division, have scored 28 goals to get 27 points from 12 games. The overall stats in the Primera Division are 8-3-1 (wins-draws-losses). The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Universidad Católica has four draws from their last four matches. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The spoils were shared in Universidad Católica's previous game, also at home. Visiting Santiago Wanderers (placed 10th) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. Preceding that game was the away draw at Audax Italiano that finished 2-2.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Universidad Católica as they are travelling to their away game against Deportes Iquique in the Primera Division. That match is three days after this one.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (28 in 12 games), Universidad's attacking play is working. From these home matches, Universidad have conceded only 11 goals.
