The World Cup Qualifier match between Chile and Colombia will take place at Estadio Monumental David Arellano on Wednesday at 6:00 am IST.
The upcoming round two of the CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup Qualifiers will feature a match between Chile and Colombia at Estadio Monumental David Arellano on Wednesday morning. Chile, who lost their initial qualifying match, currently sit in eighth place in the early stages of the competition. Meanwhile, their rivals, Colombia, had a successful start to the qualifiers over the weekend and currently hold the fourth position in the standings.
Chile, after a five-match unbeaten run featuring three wins and two draws since November, suffered a 3-1 loss to Uruguay. Despite holding 49% possession, they were outperformed, with Uruguay leading 3-0 before Arturo Vidal scored a late consolation. Eduardo Berizzo’s team finished seventh in the 2020-2022 qualifiers but sees a real chance with the expanded World Cup qualification opportunities for South American teams. Historically, their matches with Colombia have often ended in draws, but Chile knows they must prioritize victory to stay competitive, especially with challenging fixtures ahead, as six teams can now directly qualify, and the seventh enters a playoff.
Colombia had a promising start to the qualifiers, securing a 1-0 win against Venezuela with Rafael Borre’s second-half goal. Despite their dominance, they only managed a single goal from 13 attempts. The team is now on a five-match winning streak, undefeated in their last 12 games since their last loss to Argentina in February last year. Colombia’s recent strength lies in their defense, with three consecutive clean sheets and five shutouts in the last seven matches. In the previous qualifiers, they finished four points ahead of Chile and won their last encounter 3-1, although it took place in Barranquilla.
Chile probable starting lineup: Cortes, Mehssatou, Medel, Marzipan, Suazo, Osorio, Vidal, Pulgar, Brereton, Nunez, Valdes
Colombia probable starting lineup: Vargas, Munoz, Mina, Lucumi, Machado, Arias, Lerma, Rodriguez, Cuadrado, Borre, Diaz
