Deportes La Serena Team Overview

- Shots on target: 4 vs 7.
To be honest, the hosts’ current form raises plenty of questions. Over their last five matches, Deportes La Serena have managed just one win, picked up a single draw, and suffered three defeats. However, you can’t call their games boring: matches involving La Serena average 4.2 goals, with the team themselves scoring an average of 1.8 goals per game.
The main concern lies at the back. On average, the club concede 2.4 goals per match, and their personnel issues only make things worse. Forward Nicolás Stefanelli is out for the rest of the season, while a thin bench and a string of injuries continue to hamper the team’s results.

Cobresal Team Overview
The visitors last played an official match on in the Copa Chile, facing Cobreloa away from home. The contest ended in a 2-0 defeat for Cobresal.
Here’s a look at the key stats from the match (Cobresal vs Cobreloa):
- Possession: 45% vs 55%;
- Corners: 3 vs 4;
- Yellow cards: 0 vs 1;
- Shots on target: 1 vs 3.
At first glance, the visitors seem to be in even deeper trouble. Cobresal have lost each of their last five matches and are conceding an average of 2.6 goals per game. To make matters worse, they’ve lost a key defensive figure-Pablo Cardenas is sidelined with a serious knee injury.
However, it would be premature to write off the visitors entirely. Cobresal remain a top-flight side and, despite their poor run of form, they consistently create chances up front. If there’s a case to be made for backing the visitors, it’s the defensive frailties of their opponents-an area Cobresal could certainly look to exploit.

Editor’s Prediction
At first glance, backing the hosts seems reasonable, but there’s an interesting trend worth noting: Deportes La Serena have conceded in 11 of their last 12 head-to-head clashes with Cobresal. Both sides are currently struggling defensively and continue to make costly errors at the back.
It’s important to consider not just the results, but the nature of these matches as well. La Serena are conceding an average of 2.4 goals per game, while Cobresal are allowing 2.6 per match. Against this backdrop, even Cobresal’s poor form doesn’t rule out their attacking potential here. In this situation, backing Cobresal to score looks like a well-founded prediction.
