Universidad Chile form and stats

Universidad Chile have collected 8 points from their Primera Division home games so far after 2-2-1. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Estadio Santa Laura-Universidad SEK, but a victory now would be sweet for Universidad Chile.

The supporters are hoping that Universidad Chile will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the game against Coquimbo Unido (placed 7th). Before that defeat this team had gone nine consecutive league games without being beaten.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Universidad Catolica that ended 0-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Universidad Chile have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 13 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 7 and lost 2.

Early season league goal statistics from Universidad Chile's 5 home games: {5 goals}, 5 conceded.
