Colo Colo takes to the field in this 2021 National Championship after shouting champion in the Chile Cup, visiting O’Higgins in El Teniente de Rancagua from 6:00 p.m. on the 20th date of the tournament.
The albos come from two games without victories at the start of this second round and at the moment they are leaders with 34 points, the same as Audax Italiano, but with a better goal difference and one more game after the defeat of the Italians against UC. What’s more, Unión La Calera follows closely in the footsteps with two points less in third place.
For this visit to Rancagua a similar team is envisioned to the one that won the Chile Cup in Talca, with only one modification in the midfield. Quinteros plans to give rest to Vicente Pizarro to start from the start with Joan Cruz, author of a goal in 2-0 against Everton.
With this change it is expected that Leonardo Gil play again in the containment zone, which is where It has been better seen since he arrived at the Cacique after several games a few meters higher in a kind of creative team midfielder.
Thus, the eleventh of the popular to play against O’Higgins will be with Brayan Cortes in the bow; Óscar Opazo, Maximiliano Falcón, Emiliano Amor and Gabriel Suazo in defence; Bryan Soto, Leonardo Gil, Pablo Solari and Joan Cruz half the court; Marcos Bolados and Javier Parraguez in attack.
