Palestino ended their two-match winless record by defeating Nublense with a 2-0 victory in a tightly contested affair. Before the match, they experienced losses in their encounters against Flamengo RJ and Bolivar. However, they emerged triumphant in their encounter with Cobresal, but they achieved a draw in their match against Everton. They are now ranked third place in the league table, having accumulated 14 points from 7 matches played this season. This places them in the Promotion Copa Libertadores Qualification stage. With the advantage of playing on their home turf, they will strive to achieve a victory in order to continue their two-game winning streak.

Huachipato have achieved a record of three draws and two victories in their most recent five matches. In their recent games, they achieved a draw against U. Catolica, Estudiantes L.P. and O'Higgins. Nevertheless, they emerged triumphant in their encounters with Copiapo and Gremio. They now hold the 12th position in the league standings, having accumulated 9 points from 7 matches played this season. Given that they will be competing away from home, their goal is to avoid a loss.

In four out of their last five meetings, both sides scored more than two goals, and in four matches, both teams scored against each other. Nevertheless, both clubs drew in two matches; Palestino emerged victorious in two matches, while Huachipato emerged victorious in one.

In the initial stages of the match, both teams are likely to adopt a defensive approach in order to avoid conceding early goals. Given their frequent goal exchanges in their past encounters, we expect both teams to score in this match. However, despite the expectation of goals, we anticipate both teams' defensive units to be resolute, making it difficult for attacking players to score easily. Therefore, we anticipate the awarding of numerous corner kicks as both teams endeavor to breach each other's formidable defensive barriers.
