Colo Colo obtained an important victory over Coquimbo Unido last Saturday, winning three vital points that give him a lot of oxygen in this final stretch of the National Championship 2020 and the fight for the descent that has given us so many headaches this season.
In this sense, the calculations that are made are promising, since El Cacique comes with an important boost and has added considerably more points than his direct rivals in this fight for permanence.
However, do not claim victory yet, since Gustavo Quinteros’ team is ranked 16th in the standings, a place that supposedly should save him from all danger, but that is still pending in the development of this tournament pending duels.
It is in this scenario where Sports Iquique becomes important for Colo Colo, as the Celestial Dragons currently occupy 17th place with four points behind Cacique and one game behind.
The special thing about this is that the north team is also last in the weighted table, so that I would be going down to First B for that instance, running the tournament table and sending Colo Colo to play for now a game of definition with University of Concepción.

So what’s good for Colo Colo? Winning first, as fate is in your hands. If they beat La Calera this Sunday they will match Audax Italiano with 36 points and will be only one unit from Campanil and two from La Serena. Thus the albos will arrive with a gold option against Iquique in their next duel, where a victory in the north would seal their permanence in the honor division.

Now, if we start to tangle points in this final stretch, it will benefit as long as Iquique follows the same steps to the point of ending up as the absolute bottom of the tournament, since that is how the weighted table would run. Thus Coquimbo would have to play the promotion against the University of Chile.
With this panorama the results we need are the following: that Coquimbo Unido win a match of the pending that it has, ideally to Deportes Iquique, since with that he will leave the Celestial Dragons as bottom of the tournament.
Colo Colo must now focus on beating Unión La Calera, his rival from next Sunday, January 31 from 6:30 p.m. at the Monumental and where a new final will be played for the permanence in the First Division.
