Chile takes on the visitors Australia at “Otkrytiye Arena” in matchday three of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup’s Group Stage. The game will be played in Moscow on Sunday, June 25th.
The Chileans leave positive impressions in the current tournament. The South Americans have defeated Cameroon with 2:0 scoreline in the first round and then played on equal with the World Champions – the Germans getting 1:1 draw. As a result, Chile is leading in the Group B with four points gained and 3:1 goal difference while for qualifying to the Play Offs it will be enough not to lose in Sunday clash. In 2017 Arturo Vidal, Alexis Sanchez and their teammates have conducted nine encounters resulting in four victories, three draws and two defeats showing spectacular football with many goals scored. The team didn’t manage to score only once in nine games.

The Australians had battled against Germany in the first match at the tournament, but lost with 2:3 scoreline. Afterwards the team played against Cameroon showing better performance in terms of scoreline getting 1:1 draw and worse than against Europeans in terms of football itself. As a result, Australia has only one single point earned alongside with 3-4 goal difference allowing it to share the third-fourth places with Cameroon in the Group B standings and only in a case of a victory the Australians may promote to the Play Offs. In 2017 Australia has played six matches recording two wins, two losses and two draws.
Chile and Australia have met three times in their history. The first head-to-head dating back to 1974 ending with 0:0 draw, then the South Americans got two triumphs with 2:1 and 3:1 scorelines in 2000 and 2014 respectively. Australia needs a victory in the upcoming battle more, however, it looks weaker than the opponent. Thus, I believe that the South Americans will win but the margin won’t be big.
Prediction for the match: Chile to win with +2.0 Asian handicap.
