Colo-Colo vs Deportes Recoleta: Team News and Expert Analysis
The Santiago giants finished only eighth in last season’s Primera. But this year, they are pleasantly surprising with their results. Winning twelve out of fifteen matches, they are not only leading the table, but also going into the league break with a ten-point advantage over their closest pursuer.
The club from the capital’s suburbs was only eleventh in last year's second division. This season, their results there remain rather mediocre. Before the break, they recorded three draws in a row and, overall, have managed just one league win during the second half of spring.
In the cup, the league leaders started with three consecutive wins. But then they lost to O'Higgins, with a score of 1-4. Their opponents managed to exchange wins with Unión Española in February. After a 0-3 loss to the current opponent, they secured a draw against O'Higgins, and did so away from home.
