Universidad Católica vs Universidad de Concepción
17:30 ET

Universidad Católica is undoubtedly at the moment the best Chilean soccer team. With that plate they seek to stretch their five-point advantage over Unión La Calera, their closest pursuer. After thrashing 3-0 without appeals to Universidad de Chile in the University Classic, Holan's team receives Universidad de Concepción in the middle of qualifying without their captain, José Pedro Fuenzalida.

In addition, the Argentine coach was joined by the injury of Luciano Aued, who is completely ruled out for this weekend's duel. A key piece in the scheme of Holan, who is also the team's top scorer with nine touchdowns.

The box of the campanil for its part, arrives in San Carlos de Apoquindo with a victory in his pocket after beating Palestino 1-0 as a visitor. Those led by Eduardo Acevedo finally seem to be finding their way, scoring 9 out of 15 possible points since the return of football.

In addition, they have in their ranks Cecilio Waterman, the team's scorer with seven goals and who also rubs shoulders with the championship scorers. The Concepción team is located thirteenth but very close to the advanced positions, leaving the meager start of the tournament in oblivion.
