The difference-makers

O'Higgins. O'Higgins relies heavily on Arnaldo Castillo to shoulder the scoring burden given his team-high eight goals, with Thiago Vecino providing the only other substantial support from the remaining squad.

Cobresal. With Steffan Pino carrying the attacking threat alongside Julian Brea, the visitors rely on efficiency rather than possession to trouble defences.
