Antofagasta vs Union La Calera Betting Tips and Predictions

The match between Antofagasta vs Union La Calera is likely to be an interesting one,  with Antofagasta will be looking to continue their run of wins having impressively beaten in form Huachipato 3.0 at home, and then going on to easily dispatch lowly San Marcos in their next fixture.

Antofagasta performed very poorly at the close of Apertura as they ranked bottom, however their fortunes have turned so far this Clausura. Their defence has not been that solid at home this season so far seeing them concede 8 goals in 6 home games. So it is likely we will see an away goal here. Argentine attacking trio Aguirre, Ciampichetti & Orlando have been Antofagasta’s main goal outlet so far this season with 3 goals a piece. 

Union La Calera still pose an attacking threat, netting 3 against Santiago Warriors in their last match, they’re just struggle for defensive consistency. They were unlucky to concede against high flying Colo Colo and after they were reduced to 10 men the task of salvaging something from the fixture was too much.

Discipline has been an issue this season with them picking up 3 red cards so far this season. Union have only managed to score on average 1.2 goals away from home. Striker Patricio Vidal has been in good form for Union for netting 6 goals, all of which have been opening goals.

This fixture tends to be goals galore with an average of 3.3 goals being scored in the last 8 times these teams have met – Antofagasta go into this game in good form with 3 wins and 3 clean sheets already this season.  Get over 2.5 Goals at 4/5 with bet365
