Colo Colo will experience his first great challenge this Sunday in 2023. El Cacique will play a new Super Cup final, where along with seeking the title, he will try to gain confidence for the start of the National Tournament.

The match between Albos and Albicelestes is a duel with history. The so-called Clásico Popular will return with a new version to open the Chilean soccer season. Of course, despite being a historic duel, both squads had not officially faced each other since 1992, when they played for Copa Chile.

Colo Colo and Magallanes have collided throughout history a total of 149 times, counting any type of competition. In said encounters, the colocoline superiority is evident. Those of Pedrero have 76 wins against 34 for La Academia. In addition, Popular also dominates in the balance of goals, where they have made 234 annotations and they have scored 113 times.

Along the same lines and if only the professional era is taken into account, the Cacique continues at the top of the record with 71 wins. Despite this, a statistic that does not play in favor of those led by Gustavo Quinteros is that they must break a losing streak, since Magallanes has not lost to the Eternal Champion for three games.

In March 1991, Magallanes surprised at the Monumental for the Copa Chile and defeated the Albos by the minimum score. The following year and for the same tournament, the Albicelestes defeated in the first leg by two to one and in the second leg they equalized two to two in La Ruca.

Colo Colo and Magallanes will play this Sunday, January 15, starting at 7:00 p.m. at the Sausalito stadium.
