Universidad de Chile

WLWWLL

Universidad de Chile will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 1-0 Copa Libertadores losing effort in their last game against Botafogo.

In that game, Universidad de Chile managed 65% possession and 17 attempts at goal with 1 on target. At the other end, Botafogo got 15 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Igor Jesus (38') was the scorer for Botafogo.

A common characteristic of more recent Universidad de Chile games is the high number of scores with a nil in them.

Taking their prior sextet of clashes leading up to this one, in as many as 5 of them a bet on both teams scoring would have lost.

O'Higgins

LWDLWW

O'Higgins will go into the match after a 0-1 Campeonato Nacional win as they beat Ñublense in their last game.

The only name on the scoresheet from O'Higgins was Joaquín Montecinos (53').

In 5 of the prior six clashes involving O'Higgins, a comparatively low number of goals have gone in between them and opposing sides. The overall average goals scored per game in that period comes out as just 1.83, with the number of goals averaged by Capo de Provincia standing at 1. Regardless, time will tell if that trend will continue on in this match or not.

↔️ Head to head

If we look at their past head to head meetings stretching back to 28/02/2022, there has been little between the sides with Universidad de Chile winning 3 of those games, O'Higgins 3 and 0 being drawn in normal time.

A sum of 15 goals were shared by the two clubs during those clashes, with 8 of them for Los Azules and 7 being from Capo de Provincia. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.5.

The last league game featuring these sides was Campeonato Nacional match day 20 on 17/08/2024 when it finished O'Higgins 0-4 Universidad de Chile.

Conversely, O'Higgins may well struggle getting on the scoresheet although we do think that they will probably end up seeing enough of the ball to score, too.

We’re predicting a decent 3-1 winning margin for Universidad de Chile at the conclusion of the game.
