🗞️ Team News: Colo-Colo

Availability isn’t a big problem, with just the sole fitness concern for the Colo-Colo gaffer Jorge Almirón to contend with thanks to an almost full-strength group. Lucas Cepeda (Fever) won’t play.

It looks as if Los Albos will probably opt for a 4-4-2 formation with Fernando de Paul, Oscar Opazo, Sebastian Vegas, Esteban Pavez, Alan Saldivia, Claudio Aquino, Erick Wiemberg, Victor Mendez, Tomas Alarcon, Javier Correa and Salomon Rodriguez.

ℹ️ Team News: Palestino

Owing to an otherwise full-strength group, there’s only the lone fitness issue for the Palestino boss Pablo Sánchez to be concerned about. Ian Garguez (Appendicitis) won’t be playing here.

We’re of the thinking that El Tino-Tino could decide to make use of a 4-2-3-1 system with a starting lineup of Sebastian Perez, Vicente Espinoza, Antonio Ceza, Fernando Meza, Jason Leon, Ariel Martinez, Julian Fernandez, Bryan Carrasco, Joe Abrigo, Jonathan Benitez and Junior Marabel.

✨ Prediction

We feel that in this game, Colo-Colo will most probably create enough chances to score more than one when they come up against Palestino, who could well struggle to get a goal of their own.

Therefore, we are anticipating a 2-0 winning margin for Colo-Colo after 90 minutes.
