The squad led by Gustavo Quinteros travels to El Cobre with a clear mandate: secure a win that keeps them positioned at the top and firmly in the title race.
Colo Colo visits Cobresal on the ninth date of the 2023 National Championship to measure forces in a high-stakes clash. This encounter arrives with both teams eager to prove their mettle, yet Colo Colo carries the weight of defending champions as they aim to reclaim momentum after a moderate stretch of results. The team recently settled for a draw in the Superclásico 193 against Universidad de Chile at the Monumental, a result that left the defending champions looking for a spark. Currently, Colo Colo sits 11 points behind the league leaders Huachipato, with a pending fixture that could affect the standings in the near future. (Goal)
On the other side, Cobresal, coached by Gustavo Huerta, is coming off a loss in their visit to Coquimbo Unido, a 2-1 setback that hindered their push into the top positions. Their recent performance also saw them exit the Copa Sudamericana in the first round after Palestino clinched a group-stage berth, a blow they are eager to avenge in subsequent rounds. (Goal)
Jordhy Thompson will not participate in this match after a disciplinary-incident record involving violence that went viral. The club issued a formal statement condemning gender-based violence and arranged for the intervention of professionals, deciding to keep the player away from first-team duties for the time being.

The latest result was a 0-2 defeat on September 14, a game in which Juan Martín Lucero and Alexander Oroz found the net for Cobresal. (Goal)
