Audax Italiano Santiago
- Audax Italiano Santiago have won one, drawn three and lost one of their last five matches.
- Audax Italiano Santiago are in indifferent form, sitting 12th in the Primera Division 2026 with 25 points from 22 matches, only one place behind O'Higgins who are 11th with 27 points, so there is a place at stake in this mid-table clash.
- They have become a wide, aggressive team, where the wing-backs and forward will overload the flanks and press in the attacking third.
- Their recent results show a team that is beginning to find their feet again after such a change, with a 0-0 draw at home to Union La Calera, a 5-1 hammering away at Colo Colo and a 1-0 win from behind away to Deportes Concepcion in the last few weeks.
O'Higgins
- O'Higgins have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five games.
- They are a more conservative and compact team, who will look to frustrate their opponents and try to punish them on the break when they over-commit in transition.
- Their recent form shows a team with a good balance, winning one, drawing one and losing one of their past three away games, so they will travel with a bit of a bite but no guarantees of getting the win.
Head-to-Head
The last five meetings between these two in the Primera Division 2026 have seen Audax Italiano win three and lose two with no draws in that run, but O'Higgins won the reverse fixture 2-1 five months ago.
Key Players
- Cesar Pinares has been on fire with two of their five goals in the last 5 games.
- In Santiago Toloza, they have a magician in midfield who has helped create three of their goals in their past five, but up front, Arnaldo Castillo has been their main goal-getter with eight in 21 games in the Primera Division 2026.
Betting Insights
- O'Higgins score 1.55 and concede 1.91 goals per-away game in the Primera Division 2026 so they will grab their opportunities, but leave a few openings at the back.
