Head to Head:
Historically, Cobreloa have dominated this derby with 18 wins in the last 31 meetings. However, Cobresal have won the last two clashes.
Match Preview:
The saga of Cobreloa’s new stadium continues. The club’s new home has been around for months currently since Cobreloa’s administrators announced that their stadium was ready. Problems with the electrics and water offer mean but that it is yet to be granted the safety certificate needed to host events. Fans and players alike were once once more disappointed to hear that on’s derby clash won’t occur within the new arena. Cobreloa have won just 2 of the 11 designated home matches so so much in the 2014-15 season and the most positive thus far seems to be the tightening from the defence that has only conceded six goals, the joint second best record within the league.
Cobresal are in better form currently. The aspect from El Salvador picked up another valuable point on the road last weekend against San Marcos de Arica despite being with ten men for the bulk of the match. Manager Dalcio Giovagnoli has definitely given this side plenty of resolve. They have won one, drawn one and lost one off from home within the Clausura. Cobresal’s away record underneath their new manager is robust if you include the matches Giovagnoli took charge of in the Apertura.
Expect Away DNB (Draw No Bet)
