São Paulo needed less than 10 minutes to open the scoring.
Calleri began his "waiter night" by providing a chest assist for Luciano to find the back of the net.
But that was it.
O'Higgins created big chances to equalize, but was denied by goalkeeper Rafael’s inspired performance.
The situation got to the point that, on their way to the locker room at halftime, the Tricolor players were booed by their own fans.
However, shortly after the start of the second half, São Paulo scored again.
Calleri teed it up in the box for Artur to extend the Tricolor’s lead.
O'Higgins kept pressing, missed an unbelievable chance through Castillo, had a goal disallowed for a foul on Rafael Tolói, but could not cut the deficit on the scoreboard.
With the result, São Paulo remains perfect in the tournament and leads Group C with six points.
O'Higgins, meanwhile, stayed on three points and dropped to second place.
Tricolor is back in action next Saturday (18), when it visits Vasco at São Januário in the 12th round of the Brasileirão.
In the Sudamericana, São Paulo still has Millonarios (04/28, in Colombia), O'Higgins (05/07, in Chile), Millonarios (05/19, at Morumbis) and Boston River (05/26, at MorumBIS) to face in the group stage.
