The Piducanos faced the Pumas with a clear goal: secure their first victory of the season as they chase safety in the standings.
Sunday’s fixture between Rangers and Deportivo Antofagasta is staged as the fifth round of the 2023 Promotion Championship in Talca. The encounter carries extra weight for Dalcio Giovagnoli’s squad, who arrive fresh from a hard-fought draw with Deportes La Serena at La Portada. The side is eager to climb out of the relegation zone after collecting only two points so far. In contrast, John Armijo’s team marked its first league win by defeating Santiago Morning 1-0 in Calama, signaling a much-needed uptick in confidence for the visitors.
Historically, the latest meeting between these clubs dates back to March 16, 2014, in the Division of Honor. It ended in a 3-1 victory for the Pumas on the eleventh date of the Final Tournament. The match was notable for a few moments of crowd trouble, which forced the referee to end the game early as tensions boiled over and players from the Piducano side left the field with eight men on duty at the final whistle.
The clash between Piducanos and Pumas will be available only via TNT Sports Stadium streaming, as Deportes Iquique face Puerto Montt at the same time on the schedule.
