Palestino Santiago
- Palestino Santiago are 4th in Primera Division 2026 on 27 points from 18 games while Huachipato are 9th on 24 points.
- Palestino won 2-1 at home against Coquimbo Unido prior to a 2-1 away defeat to Universidad de Chile, so their momentum is still positive.
Huachipato
- Huachipato are in poor form with one win, one draw and three defeats in their last five, while Palestino Santiago have three wins and two losses in the same period.
- Huachipato have scored 0.78 and conceded 1.33 per game away.
Head-to-Head
The last five head-to-head meetings between the two sides in all competitions have been close with one win each and three draws , but I expect the home team to edge this one .
Key Players
- Santiago's striker Nelson Da Silva is their main man with nine goals in 17 Primera Division 2026 appearances and he has three of the Tricolor's six goals in their last five games.
- Huachipato's 25-year-old Colombian striker Lionel Altamirano is their biggest threat with eight goals in 18 Primera Division 2026 matches and he has scored three of their seven goals in the last five matches.
Betting Insights
- The 1.88 odds on Palestino look good to me as Huachipato are in a rut and the draw sits behind them at 3.55 and the away side at 4.1.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.73 also makes the game script as both teams to score at 1.65 has a live feel about it.
