Chile hosts Venezuela in round 12 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Friday, October 15th at Estadio Monumental David Arellano (Santiago de Chile)
Chile looks like a classic cornered animal. However, who, besides themselves, are to blame for such a situation? How could a team with such masters score only one point in three matches in September and start October with a 2-0 defeat to Peru? Yes, in the last round, Chile finally managed to wake up and secure a confident 2-0 victory over Paraguay (Maurizio Isla scored a goal and made an assist). Still, the Reds are at the bottom of the standings so far. Formally, there are some chances of taking the desired place, and the ending schedule is quite loyal, but Chile needs to win every game and start this streak in the upcoming match.

In principle, Venezuela did not claim anything serious, and their rare successes are always perceived as sensations, although the team has at least a couple of quite stellar players (first of all, Rincon and Rondon). But the Venezuelans managed to score only seven points in eleven rounds of the current qualification. Even Bolivia, which is regarded as a complete outsider, has two more! On the other hand, you should not consider these matches as a guarantee of replenishment of the piggy bank. In October, the Venezuelans almost surprised their fans in the match against Brazil, as the score was 1-1 until the 85th minute. And then they beat Ecuador in a strong-willed style. First, Enner Valencia opened the scoring from the penalty spot. Then the hosts answered twice, and little-known Eduard Bello was involved in both goals: an assist and a decisive goal!
Chile had had five consecutive victories in head-to-head matches. But last November, Venezuela gained a 2-1 victory at home. The decisive goal was scored by Salomon Rondon. Now Chile has to win and is considered the favorite. But both teams are capable of making surprises, so we choose a neutral option with Over 2.0 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 goals scored
