Only a win will satisfy the Universidad Católica supporters in this Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo clash with La Serena, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Primera Division table.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Copa Sudamericana match only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Sol de America.
Universidad Católica form and stats
16 points is a decent return from 7 Primera Division games here at Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo for Universidad Católica. The data says 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.
Universidad shared the glory with Sol de America in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Ahead of that match, Universidad won a home game hosting Internacional (2-1).
It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Universidad Católica have performed as huge favourites like they are today: ten games found in the database showing seven Universidad Católica wins, three draws and zero defeats.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Universidad Católica, as the Copa Sudamericana home game vs Sol de America is only four days away.
The Universidad manager A. Holan has got the team scoring with 17 from 7 home games in the league. From these home matches, Universidad have conceded only 6 goals.
La Serena form and stats
La Serena, who have the the worst goal difference (-10) in Primera Division, have only collected 2 points from their away games in the Primera Division, after 0-2-6 (8 played). With two straight losses from their last two away games, Serena are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Serena lost away at Deportes Iquique (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Before that, Serena secured a home win against Palestino with the score 4-2.
Nobody expects Serena to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath eleven times before, with the overall statistics of won five, draw one and lost five. When defeated, two matches have been lost by two or more goals.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from La Serena's away games in the league this season with only 4 goals from 8 matches. La Serena have conceded 13 goals in these games.
