LiontipsColombia vs Chile. Prediction and Betting Tips for World Cup qualifier
Command Analysis
Los Cafeteros are fighting for a World Cup spot. They won't be able to chase down Brazil, but they are still competing against Argentina, Ecuador and Uruguay.
All three most recent matches ended with a draw, so Reinaldo Rueda's men need to step up now. Team managed to held Argentina to draw (2:2), then failed to beat Bolivia (1:1) and in the last match Paraguay managed to avoid defeat (1:1).
Colombia are currently fifth at the group, so they need to record at least one point in the next match. They will play at home, so they have a great chance for a victory over Chile.
The Red One still have a chance to qualify for the World Cup, but they need to start winning. They recorded most recent victory a long time ago, in June, when they managed to beat Bolivia (1:0) in Copa America.
During the current qualification tournament Chile recorded only one victory. All other matches ended with either defeat or a draw. Martin Lasarte has a number of great players in his squad, but they just can't get it going.
In their next match they will play against Colombia on away game, so they should get ready for a difficult match.
