Universidad Catolica and Union La Calera to Draw at Half Time

Although we expect Universidad Catolica to win this game, given their current form, we don’t expect them to have an easy job. In fact, we can see this game being decided in the second half.

With that in mind, our next prediction is for Universidad Catolica and Union La Calera to draw at half time.

Over 2.5 Total Goals

These two teams haven’t met in recent years, so we don’t have any h2h data to help us determine how many goals can we expect in this match – but we have a feeling that we will see three or more goals.

After all, Universidad Catolica went over 2.5 total goals in four of their six games in their domestic league this season, although Union La Calera has just one of their last five games with three or more goals.

Universidad Catolica vs Union La Calera preview: A very close matchup

Universidad Catolica

After six rounds in Ecuadorian league, Universidad Catolica has eight points. While that’s far from great, it is still enough to put the team in the sixth place in the standings at the moment. In any case, Universidad Catolica has been inconsistent so far. For example, they have two wins, two draws, and two losses in the last six games in the league.

Union La Calera

The team that was fourth in the Chilean league last season has struggled at the start of the new season since they only managed to collect seven points so far in the first eight rounds. With one win in these eight games, Union La Calera is clearly out of form and their fans are certainly hoping they can pick it up soon.
