Deportes La Serena vs Cobreloa Prediction 28 June 2026
🔊 The Chilean Cup group stage is entering its most exciting phase. Every dropped point now could have a major impact on the race to progress, leaving virtually no margin for error. Deportes La Serena come into this fixture after a tough stretch, while Cobreloa are building momentum and look like one of the most organized sides in the group.
Head-to-Head
📊 This will be the first-ever meeting between these teams in the Chilean Cup. Previously, they faced off in Primera B, but their last official encounters date back to 2019-2023. Over those three matches, Cobreloa claimed two victories and netted four goals, while Deportes La Serena managed to score just once. However, it’s worth noting that both squads have undergone significant changes since then, so those results offer little insight into the current matchup.

Squad problems are also mounting. Nicolás Stefanelli remains sidelined as he continues his recovery from a serious injury, while Diego Rubio is still out with a muscle issue.

Still, even without these key players, Cobreloa look like the more cohesive side.

Editorial Prediction
Frankly, the expectations surrounding this match are a bit surprising. Many believe Cobreloa will struggle to break down the hosts’ defense, but the numbers tell a different story entirely. Deportes La Serena have conceded an average of 2.2 goals per game over their last five outings, and their back line has looked anything but secure.
If you’re looking for the main argument, here it is: Cobreloa have scored in each of their last five matches, averaging 2.2 goals per game themselves. With stats like these, it would be hard to ignore this bet. Our pick: Cobreloa over 0.5 team goals.
