Head-to-head statistics Deportes La Serena - Nublense

Deportes La Serena Team Overview
The hosts sit 10th in the table. Their recent results have been fairly decent, though - two wins from their last four games, including a victory over Unión La Calera (1-0). The team generally lean towards an attacking style, as was evident in their match against Cobresal (3-3).

Match Results: Deportes La Serena

Nublense Team Overview
Ñublense play a considerably more pragmatic style of football. They average just over a goal scored and a goal conceded per match. In the table, though, they sit higher - 6th, compared to their opponents' 10th. That measured approach has brought them success often enough, but their last two matches have brought two defeats - 0-2 to Limache and 0-1 to Deportes Concepción. Ñublense tend to look at their best at home, so adapting away will be a challenge. Their defence could suffer, but counter-attacks should create plenty of positive moments in and around the opposition box.
Match Results: Nublense
Match Result Prediction
Deportes La Serena have gone seven consecutive home head-to-head matches without defeat against Ñublense, which reflects the hosts' confidence in this fixture. Ñublense, meanwhile, have managed only 4 wins from their away matches this season, alongside 4 draws and 2 defeats, which points to fairly moderate results on the road. Deportes La Serena themselves have also failed to win in 6 of their last 7 home matches, which suggests a good chance of a draw at 3.41*.

Risky Bet
