Coquimbo Unido

vs

Nublense

Preview

Coquimbo Unido (Home)

• Coquimbo Unido have won two and lost two of their four home games in the Primera Division 2026.
• Coquimbo Unido’s last three home games: 1 win, 1 draw, 1 defeat.
• Coquimbo Unido have been in excellent form since coach Hernan Caputto took charge in January 2026, winning three, drawing one and losing one of their last five games in all competitions, including a Copa Libertadores away win over Universitario de Deportes (2-0) and a 1-1 home draw with Club Nacional.
• Caputto’s 4-3-3 system employs an aggressive pressing style that can be tough to counter, and the hosts have enough energy and quality to hurt Nublense at both ends of the field on Sunday.
• Juan Cornejo has been a creative engine in the centre of the park for Coquimbo this term, creating four goals in just seven league appearances, and the host’s overall approach is likely to frustrate Nublense.
• Cristian Zavala has scored three of Coquimbo’s last nine goals and is the team’s most in-form forward.
• Alejandro Azocar has scored two goals in five Primera Division 2026 appearances, making him a decent pick for an anytime scorer.

Nublense (Away)

• Nublense are unbeaten away in the league this season, with two wins and two draws from four games.
• Nublense have been in solid form recently, with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in their last 5 games.
• The visitors last two matches, however, were a gritty 1-0 home win against Universidad de Chile and a 0-0 draw away to mid-table Everton CD.
• Ignacio Jeraldino leads the visitors’ scoring charts with three goals in nine appearances, while coach Juan Jose Ribera has done a good job since his appointment in January 2026, implementing a disciplined and compact 3-5-2 structure that can be both organised and flexible.
