In the 2nd round of the group stage of the Copa America, Chile will play with Bolivia. Will someone win the first victory?
Chile
The Chileans started in the group stage with a draw with Argentina, which may well be happy, because the other opponents, with all due respect, are clearly weaker. However, the Chile national team itself has not been impressive recently. This year, Vidal and his partners have played four matches, winning only one of them, and then in a friendly (2-1 with Bolivia), and in three official matches they drew, each time 1-1.
Bolivia
Bolivia started the group stage with a 1-3 loss to Paraguay, so it must cling to points in the remaining games to finish at least in fourth place and qualify for the playoffs. In 2021, Bolivia played five matches: in two friendlies, it lost 1-2 to Chile and Ecuador, and in the official ones, it played as follows: it beat Venezuela 3-1, played 1-1 with Chile and lost 1-3 to Paraguay.
Injuries and disqualifications:
- Disqualifications:
- Cuellar (red card) - Bolivia.
- Under question:
- Sanchez (muscle injury) - Chile.
Statistics and figures:
- The Chile national team has not lost yet this year: a win and three draws;
- Bolivia has won one of the last five matches;
- Bolivia won against Chile in one of the previous 14 matches.
Forecast
The Chileans are the clear favorites for the match, but I suggest you bet on the goal of Bolivia. She rarely wins, but scores regularly, the same Chileans scored in both matches this year.
