Cobresal vs Colo Colo Prediction: Colo-Colo Desperate to Win and Bag Three Points

In the upcoming fixture of the Chilean Primera Division, Matchday 9, Cobresal will be up against Colo-Colo at the Estadio El Cobre. With Colo-Colo standing at the 7th spot and Universidad Catolica C leading the points table, we can find something more interesting and attractive from this year’s Chilean Primera Division. According to the points table standings of today, Cobresal stands 6th with 3 wins and 11 points. If the home side manages to win the upcoming nail-bitter against Colo-Colo, the top five standings might change. Colo-Colo and Cobresal last played in 2022, and Colo-Colo won (0-2). 

Going in the matchup, Cobresal is coming off a defeat against Coquimbo Unido (2-1), in which Cecilio Waterman scored the only goal for Cobresal, and that too on a penalty. With the likes of Nelson Sepulveda, Luis Vasquez, and Cecilio Waterman in the lineup, Cobresal can deliver a decent punch playing at home. Cobresal has scored 44 goals in 35 matches against Colo-Colom, averaging about 1.26 goals per game. Apart from the head-to-head scoring stats, Cobresal has scored 6 goals in the last 5 matches played, averaging 1.2 goals per game. In recent matches at home, Cobresal has managed to secure a win against Everton CD (3-2) but also lost to Palestino (0-1). 

Colo-Colo has won two consecutive matches against Cobresal, which is why they will be starting as the favorite in tomorrow’s match. Colo-Colo is yet to unleash its true potential and come out all guns blazing. Coming off a draw against Universidad de Chile (0-0) and that too at home, the pressure is likely to keep accumulating on Colo-Colo. Colo-Colo last defeated Magallanes (2-0) at home, in which Fabian Castillo and Dario Lezcano did the scoring. With the likes of Ramiro Gonzalez, Matias de los Santos, and Erick Wlemberg defending at the back, Colo-Colo is likely to play its natural game and attack. With 6 goals scored in the last 5 matches played, Colo-Colo averages 1.2 goals per game. Therefore, Colo will look to start positively and score. 

Comparing the head-to-head stats and scoring form of the two teams, Colo-Colo leads the charts with 64 goals at an average of 1.83 against Cobresal. Moreover, Colo-Colo has won three of the last four matches played between the two. As both teams have been involved in the scoring, I am expecting both teams to score. The match total is likely to be over 2.5 goals, and Colo-Colo to win a high-scoring match.

• Colo Colo to Win for 2.20
• Total Over 2.5 for 1.89
• Both Teams To Score - Yes for 1.71
