Coelho and Correa can break the deadlock
Colo Colo boss Fernando Ortiz has instilled a high-tempo, high-pressing game that has seen the Caciques win their last three games, including an emphatic 4-1 home win against Union La Calera and an excellent 2-1 away success at Union Espanola. They use the ball a lot, getting down the wings and can overload the flanks in the final third, but they are also dangerous in transition and have the pace to catch teams on the counter-attack.
Diego Coelho is Cobresal Salvador’s danger man, with 11 goals in 26 Primera Division 2025 appearances this season, and the Salvadoristas tend to do well on set pieces at home. The same number of goals has been scored by Colo Colo’s Javier Correa, who has only featured in 23 games.
