Cobreloa rest regulars for Copa Chile tie, eye Wanderers final

Coach Mario Salas confirmed Cobreloa will not field their usual starting side against Coquimbo Unido in the Copa Chile round-of-16 first leg, saving players for Saturday's Primera B decider with Wanderers. Several non-starters and a large group of youth players will feature.

What it means

• Salas: 'we will not go out with the team that could play at the weekend' against Coquimbo
• Cobreloa prioritise the Primera B 'final' vs Wanderers, with six league rounds left
• A large contingent of youth players will be taken for the cup tie

Model read

Cobreloa field a deliberately weakened, heavily rotated side for the Copa Chile first leg, so they are notably less likely to get a strong result against Coquimbo Unido.

All signals for this team: Cobreloa
