The league table is allowed to rest as Coquimbo Unido and Defensa y Justicia battle for Copa Sudamericana honors in this first Semi-finals leg of two fixtures.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Defensa y Justicia have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Coquimbo Unido form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Coquimbo Unido have to build on here at Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in the Primera Division. This match is a Copa Sudamericana match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 5 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in this competition. Game days at Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Coquimbo as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

It's back home for Coquimbo, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Huachipato away with the result 1-0. L. Palacios found the net in that victory. Preceding that match was a Primera Division defeat to Antofagasta (0-1).

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Universidad Chile are coming to town in three days.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Coquimbo here at Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (12 from 13 games). 19 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Defensa y Justicia form and stats

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

The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Copa Sudamericana stats, they have 4 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses both home and away.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Justicia, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-3 versus Rosario Central. Before that, Defensa y Justicia secured a home win against Patronato with the score 2-1.

A new game in only three days for Justicia, the Superliga home match versus Aldosivi. Busy days.
