The Bolivian national team has shown impressive form recently, securing two straight victories and scoring six goals against Chile and Venezuela. Playing at home under challenging climatic conditions, the Bolivians will likely adopt an aggressive attacking strategy, leaving Colombia with minimal chances of keeping a clean sheet; in their last four encounters in Bolivia, the Colombians have conceded. However, the Colombian squad has its own offensive strengths, making it likely they can respond effectively.
We expect goals in this match. Our prediction is both teams to score. This bet is available at odds of 2.09.
