Argentina vs Chile Prediction and Betting Tips (15.06.2021)

Command Analysis

Argentina

Argentina's national team did not start very confidently in the qualifications for the World Cup. In six games, Lionel Scaloni's team was able to get only three victories. At the same time, the Albiceleste didn't lose - with 12 points they are on the second line in the table. They are six points behind the Brazilian team, who are the leaders, and it will be hard to close that gap.

In the last round, Argentina gave away the victory over Colombia - by the eighth minute the Argentines had a two-goal advantage, but in the end, they allowed the opponent to come back.

Chile

Chile performed poorly at the start of the qualification for the World Cup. In four games under the management of Reinaldo Rueda, La Roja suffered two defeats and got one 2:0 victory over Peru in the third round. After the arrival of Martin Lasarte, the situation stabilized - the Chileans snatched a 1:1 away draw with Argentina and finished the game against Bolivia with the same score.

After six rounds, the Chilean national team is seventh, but only two points behind the fifth line.

Tip and bets

1.67Argentina to win

The last time Argentina won Copa America was back in 1993, which is too long ago for a regular gold medal contender. Obviously, for Lionel Messi, it is very important to win the title with the national team. The motivation of Albiceleste's leader will be high, as well as the whole team's for sure.

The Chilean national team is weakened by the loss of Alexis Sanchez, and in general, the form of the team is far from ideal, so it makes sense to give preference to the Argentines.

We suggest betting on the favourite. Our prediction - Argentina to win.

1.8Total under 2.5 goals

We doubt that any of the teams will dare to play open football from the start of the game - the cost of a mistake is too high, and it is not in the style of the opponents. Surely Chile will spend most of the time on the defensive and Argentina will have to work hard to score first.

Our second bet - total under 2.5 goals.
