After a losing effort in their last game against Botafogo in Copa Libertadores action, Carabobo and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
In that game, Carabobo managed 40% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. On the other side, Botafogo had 12 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. Vitinho (22') and Cuiabano (90') scored for Botafogo.

For their opponents, Universidad de Chile had 11 shots on goal with 2 on target. Charles Aránguiz (43') scored.
Looking at personnel, there is just the lone fitness concern for the Universidad de Chile boss Gustavo Álvarez to be concerned about from an otherwise complete set of players. Charles Aránguiz (Torn muscle bundle) is out of contention.
With a fully injury-free squad available for selection, the Carabobo boss Diego Merino has zero fitness worries whatsoever before this match.
For this match, we think that Universidad de Chile will most probably fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding when they come up against Carabobo, who won’t find it easy finding the net themselves.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a 2-0 win for Universidad de Chile when all’s said and done.
