After a cup week and after the elections, Colo Colo and Italian Audax meet in an empty Monumental.
Colo Colo and Italian Audax stand as rivals on the thirteenth matchday of the 2023 First Division Tournament at the David Arellano stadium, which will be surrounded by silent stands due to the punishment of the popular fans for their behavior in the Superclásico. It marks the second of three home games for Albo played before an empty field.
The Cacique arrives battered after a defeat to Boca, yet sitting sixth with 19 points, hoping to seize the moment to climb into Libertadores contention. The Italian club, sitting with a modest cushion of three points more than Curicó, eyes capitalizing on any slip by their rivals and continuing the positive streak that both José Calderón (interim) and Luca Marcogiuseppe have tried to stabilize within the squad.

WHEN AND WHERE IS IT
The road to victory demands grit and persistence, but the atmosphere will be noticeably empty.
Keep fighting, Cacique. The team conveys resilience through every challenge and shares a message of perseverance across the stands, even when the arena is quiet.
