O’Higgins will have a tough match on Sunday. With an irregular campaign at home, where they have registered 8 points out of a possible 18, the need to add three makes the duel against Audax Italiano key.
While the rival is at the bottom of the table, the Rancagüinos are only one step above those who fight below, considering that, with 14 units, they are closer to the relegation zone than to the leader of the National Tournament. Now, just one point away from the cutoff to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana, beating the Italics is essential to believe again.
In these days of preparation for the match, coach Juan Manuel Azconzábal must analyze who will replace Antonio Díaz, who was sent off in the last match and who will miss this duel. It will surely be Pedro Navarro, who has already fulfilled that task on previous dates.
Meanwhile, the rest of the team would remain considering that they performed adequately against the Spanish Union. “I am convinced that O’Higgins is prepared to be at the top, to once again reach the positions we initially had. “That focuses me,” said the DT.
In addition, he commented that “the desire is to always be in the positions that represent O’Higgins’ objective, which are the highest and that goes day after date.”
Finally, the strategist argued that “Audax is going to have the urge not to repeat what happened to it (with Cobresal), and we also have the urge to win again.”
