Antofagasta form and stats

Last season their Copa Sudamericana adventure ended in the 1st round.

Antofagasta have played 17 Primera Division games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 8-7-2 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for Antofagasta bring valid hopes of a third.

Antofagasta lost their last game at Universidad Chile after a 1-3 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Antofagasta won a home game hosting O'Higgins (1-0).

This is expected to be a close game, with Antofagasta perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Antofagasta as a small favourite), we find six games. Antofagasta has won three of these, drawn two and lost one.

Antofagasta have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Estadio Regional Calvo y Bascuñán with 26 goals in 17 league matches. 17 goals have been conceded.

Huachipato form and stats

Huachipato's mission in Copa Sudamericana last season failed in the 2nd round.

There's been little loot from Huachipato's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 17 away games in the Primera Division. Huachipato only have 3 wins to counter their 12 defeats and 2 draws. It's all red in the travel logs of Huachipato, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.

Two away games in a row for Huachipato, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Everton in the Primera Division. Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Palestino in the Primera Division.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Huachipato in our archives, and the results are: one win for Huachipato, zero draws and six defeats.

The attacking power of Huachipato when travelling is not overwhelming with 15 goals scored from 17 league matches away. Huachipato struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 29 goals conceded from these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: three - four - three (Antofagasta wins - draws - Huachipato wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.
