Palestino is currently 7th place in the Chilean league table with 8 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses from a total of 20 games played. Their first-leg encounter against Independiente Medellín ended in a 2-2 draw. Palestino conceded a goal in the early minutes of the first half but responded with two goals at the start of the second half but they later conceded a late goal to make it 2-2.

Their last three encounters produced two wins for Independiente Medellín and a draw.

We witnessed a highly offensive game in the first-leg encounter which produced 4 goals and with both teams still having everything to play for, we expect goals to flow in this encounter on Friday. Both teams to score at 2.25 is a great betting choice or for a more conservative option, we can go for a minimum of two goals from either team. We also witnessed a high number of corners in their first leg encounter and we envisage a similar outcome here on Friday.
