Big guns Colo Colo to roll over La Serena
Colo Colo take on La Serena in a clash between the Primera Division 2026 leaders and their 12th-placed hosts on Saturday afternoon with both points and bragging rights up for grabs.
Caciques have 30 points from 13 matches, thirteen more than La Serena, who have played the same number of games and are on 17 points.
Fernando Ortiz has been a revelation at Colo Colo, taking the club to the summit of the league with his compact, proactive, organised and high-pressing team since taking charge in September 2025.
On the other side, Felipe Gutierrez, another astute manager, has brought a different dimension to La Serena since taking the helm in January 2026. His flexible tactics enable the club to play between a back three and back four with an emphasis on wing play, quick transitions and selective pressing to rattle the opposition.
This La Serena vs Colo Colo preview highlights that the home team have been in decent form, reacting well to their 5-1 away defeat at Palestino by thumping Deportes Limache 4-1 at home.
Colo Colo have won four straight games and claimed a 2-1 away win over Universidad Catolica only 24 hours ago.
Javier Correa is in outstanding form for Caciques, scoring eight goals in ten league games, six of them in their last five.
Jeisson Vargas is La Serena’s main goal threat with five goals in 13 games and three of the last nine for his team.
Colo Colo’s collective pressing and superior midfield control should ensure that they get on top in this clash, shutting down La Serena’s preferred style of play, although the home team can nick a goal in a match in which the away side dominates.

Our La Serena vs Colo Colo prediction is that Caciques will continue their winning run here, but with La Serena at home and boasting good attacking players of their own, both teams may find the net in an end-to-end game.
Colo Colo to win and both teams to score is the main selection for this match, while an away win with over 2.5 goals looks like a good way to secure more value from the odds. For more insights, check out our La Serena vs Colo Colo betting tips.
