Santiago Wanderers - Union San Felipe

Chile Primera Division

After the fabulous match that counted for Copa Sudamericana, against LDU Quito, San Felipe won 4-2, and have taken a serious step towards a historical qualification. However, they are only halfway through, as it is known the strength that LDU has when playing in Casablanca, and they could easily overturn the 2 goals deficit. That is why San Felipe's coach is putting his entire focus on the Sudamericana second leg, at the expense of the Chilean league, and they will use a line-up consisting fully of reserves, in order to give the regulars a proper rest. That means that big names and regular players will miss the game. Therefore, Santiago Wanderers will have a golden opportunity to take the 3 points that could see them go 3 points clear of the relegation places, so a win today for them is absolutely vital. They should also end their poor run, as they have only won once in the last 9 league matches. The Wanderers will have no important absences, and they have already said they will treat each of the remaining games as a final, so I don't doubt their motivation, and against an alternative San Felipe team, they should take their chances. GL!

Santiago Wanderers @ 1.97, 5/10
Result: 2-1, WON
