Limache host Coquimbo at Estadio Gustavo Ocaranza in a Group A clash that carries real weight in Copa Chile 2026 standings. Both teams are level on 7 points after three games, with Coquimbo holding a superior goal difference of +4 against Limache’s -1. The two sides already met in this same group stage, drawing 1-1, which makes this rematch a decisive encounter. Jean Meneses leads Limache’s attack with 2 goals in the last five matches, while Coquimbo defender Juan Cornejo has been a surprising contributor with 2 goals and 1 assist from the backline.
Hot stat: Coquimbo has accumulated 40 corner kicks across their last five matches, nearly double Limache’s 22, signaling aggressive wide play that Limache’s defensive shape will need to account for at home.

Limache vs Coquimbo Prediction
Coquimbo arrives in far better form, unbeaten in their last six matches (3W, 3D) compared to Limache’s 1W, 3L, 2D over the same period. In this group, Coquimbo beat Deportes Iquique 3-0 and defeated San Marcos de Arica 1-0, conceding just one goal in three outings. Limache, playing at home, did hold Coquimbo to a 1-1 draw in their recent meeting, but they also shipped four goals to Deportes Iquique. The home advantage is real but limited given the form gap.
Coquimbo commits 29 fouls across five matches versus Limache’s 14, making them the more aggressive side. Their 12 yellow cards in five games (against Limache’s 4) suggest Hernán Caputto’s team plays on the edge. Limache’s 73% pass accuracy outpaces Coquimbo’s 78% raw figure when adjusted for volume, and Coquimbo’s lower pass count (740 vs 894) suggests they are more direct and vertical. That directness, combined with their corner threat, favors a Coquimbo goal, but Limache’s home setup can limit damage.
We predict Coquimbo to win or the match to end level again, with goals on both sides being a reasonable expectation given both teams have scored in four of their last five combined meetings.

Team Analysis
Limache enter this match on a difficult run. Víctor Rivero’s side lost 1-4 to Deportes Iquique in their most recent Copa Chile game, a result that exposed defensive fragility despite the home record. Before that, they drew 1-1 with Coquimbo and beat San Marcos de Arica 3-1, showing they can perform against weaker opposition. Outside the Copa Chile, losses to D. Concepcion (2-3) and Everton (0-1) confirm inconsistency. Jean Meneses (2 goals, 6 shots in 5 games) is their most dangerous outlet, and Flavio Moya adds 2 goals from midfield. The 4-3-3 gives them width, but their 16 interceptions across five games is low, reflecting passive defensive positioning.
Coquimbo are the stronger side on paper and in recent form. Hernán Caputto’s team beat San Marcos de Arica 1-0 in their last Copa Chile outing, extending their unbeaten run in the group to three matches. The 3-0 win over Deportes Iquique earlier in this phase was their most complete performance. Their 0-0 draw with O’Higgins and wins over D. Concepcion show consistency across competition levels. Nicolas Johansen leads with 7 shots in four games and 1 goal, while Lucas Pratto and Luis Riveros each contribute a goal. The 4-4-2 gives Coquimbo solidity and their 23 interceptions in five games reflects a more organized defensive structure than Limache.

Pre-game Odds and Win Probability: Coquimbo the Favourite
- Moneyline Limache 3.00 | Coquimbo 2.20
- Draw 3.10
- Over/Under Over 2.5 — | Under 2.5 —
- BTTS (both teams to score) Yes — | No —
Bookmakers price Coquimbo as clear favorites at around 2.20, reflecting their superior form and global club ranking. Limache at 3.00 represents modest home value given they drew with Coquimbo just days ago in this same group. The draw at 3.10 is fairly priced considering both teams have drawn in over half their recent encounters. To be honest, the Double Chance X2 market at lower odds is the safer route given Coquimbo’s unbeaten run, rather than backing them outright at 2.20.
Possible Starting Lineups
Limache Possible Starting Eleven
- GK: Claudio González
- DF: Alfonso Parot, Augusto Ezequiel Aguirre, Misael Llantén, Yerko González
- MF: César Fuentes, Flavio Moya, Marcos Arturia
- FW: Jean Meneses, Joaquín Montecinos, Vicente Álvarez
Víctor Rivero is expected to line up in a 4-3-3. Claudio González keeps goal after logging 540 minutes across six games. Alfonso Parot and Augusto Ezequiel Aguirre are the most consistent defensive presences, with Aguirre also contributing a goal and 4 interceptions. Jean Meneses is the standout name in attack, with 2 goals, 6 shots, and 113 passes in five matches, making him Limache’s most complete forward threat. Flavio Moya’s two goals from midfield add a secondary scoring dimension that Coquimbo must respect.
Coquimbo Possible Starting Eleven
- GK: Diego Sanchez
- DF: Elvis Hernandez, Manuel Fernández, Juan Cornejo, Francisco Salinas
- MF: Sebastián Galani, Dylan Emanuel Glaby, Alejandro Camargo, Salvador Cordero
- FW: Nicolas Johansen, Luis Riveros
Hernán Caputto’s preferred 4-4-2 shape gives Coquimbo defensive width and directness up front. Diego Sanchez starts in goal with 360 minutes across four matches. Juan Cornejo is the most dangerous player in the squad statistically, with 2 goals, 1 assist, and 5 interceptions from center-back. Nicolas Johansen leads the forward line with 7 shots and 1 goal in four games. Pablo Roberto Rodriguez Salgado could push for a starting role after contributing 1 goal and 1 assist in five games, and his 3 yellow cards across those appearances show he plays with intensity.

TipsGG Match Prediction
Coquimbo hold the edge in every meaningful metric: form, group stage goal difference, defensive organization, and attacking variety. Their 3-0 win over Deportes Iquique and 1-0 over San Marcos de Arica show they can grind out results as well as dominate. Limache’s home factor kept the first meeting level at 1-1, but the 1-4 loss to Deportes Iquique revealed how quickly their defense can collapse under sustained pressure, and Coquimbo generates that pressure with 40 corners and direct forward runs.
We predict a Coquimbo win, perhaps 2-1, with Limache finding a goal through Meneses or Moya but ultimately unable to contain Coquimbo’s width and corner volume. The Double Chance X2 remains the value play, and BTTS Yes is supported by both teams’ scoring records in this group.
