A brief look at the Primera Division table point to an edge to Unión La Calera when they come to Universidad Chile. Even so; let's await the match before we hand out the points!
- Universidad Chile have the fewest scored goals in the first half (12) in Primera Division
- Unión La Calera have the fewest conceded goals in the second half (17) in Primera Division
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Universidad are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Calera are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
