El Campanil aims for a breakthrough as the Celestial Dragons seek their first win of the season, hoping to climb out of the relegation zone. The upcoming fixture places Universidad de Concepción against Sports Iquique at Ester Roa Stadium, marking the sixth date of the 2023 Promotion Championship.
Under the guidance of coach Miguel Ramírez, El Campanil will pursue a first triumph of the campaign. In their most recent outing, they were edged 2-1 by Cobreloa, a result that left the team at the bottom of the table without points. The home side opened the scoring through Yashir Islame in the 11th minute, but Cobreloa struck twice later in the match, with David Escalante and Cristian Insaurralde finding the net at 77 and 85 minutes respectively. The club has two matches in hand after a suspension delayed games against Rangers and Puerto Montt.
Meanwhile, the Celestial Dragons arrive off a 1-1 draw with the Dolphins in the Land of Champions, a result that kept them from extending their lead. Ramón Fernández opened the scoring for the visitors, yet Carlos Soza appeared to seal the points for the hosts at the 53rd minute, before the visitors responded to snatch a draw.
Historical clashes between the two clubs reveal a recent trend in favor of the Campanil. The most recent meeting occurred on September 25, when the home side celebrated a 2-1 victory in Biobío, courtesy of goals from Kevin Medel and Gustavo Guerreño. It is noteworthy that the northern side has not recorded a win against Universidad de Concepción since June 2021.
The match between El Campanil and the Celestial Dragons will be streamed exclusively on TNT Sports Stadium, with simultaneous action featuring Barnechea versus Rangers taking place at the same time.
