Squad Analysis: Key Players and Notable Absences
Universidad Catolica Santiago boasts a squad rich in talent. Fernando Zampedri is their star striker, consistently finding the back of the net.

Primera slips back into focus now, and I’m listing out what’s coming up—few matches predictions worth pondering over. Teams are gearing up, no grand fuss, just that quiet hum before they lock horns. At all, here’s the rundown next. O'Higgins FC tangle with Palestino, 20 April 2025 — two sides that don’t mess about.
