Chile – Venezuela : Preview & Prediction
Chile must line up a second victory in a row against Venezuela after defeating Paraguay (2-0) on October 11 … We have to go back to June 2019 to see Roja win two matches in a row, i.e. one eternity !. The protected Lasarte put an end to their black series of 7 unsuccessful matches (2 draws and 5 losses) by disposing of Paraguay on the achievements of Brereton and Isla after the hour mark. Chile, 5th home formation (2 wins, 2 draws, 1 defeat), can gain one or two places overall if he beats the red lantern. La Roja, 8th, lost the first leg (2-1) in Caracas on a goal from Rondon late in the game (81st). Venezuela has only 7 points out of 33 distributed and seems resigned to a possible qualification for the 2022 World Cup. The gap over Colombia (8 points) is too substantial with 7 days from the end of these Qualifiers. However, the Vinotinto regouted to the joys of victory on October 10 by beating Ecuador (2-1) to everyone’s surprise. Venezuela had not won since November 17, almost a year !. The partners of Aristeguieta remained on 5 losses in a row against Peru (0-1 and 0-1), against Argentina (1-3), Paraguay (2-1) and against Brazil (1-3 ). Venezuela’s very poor away record (5 defeats in 5 matches) does not give it any credit during this future trip to Santiago de Chile.
Venezuela has achieved just 1 victory in their last 11 outings.
Venezuela has the worst away record: 5 trips, 5 losses.
Venezuela is the red lantern in these Qualifiers with 8 defeats in 11 days.
Compulsory victory for Chile in order to relaunch in the race for qualification.
Chile have won 5 of the last 6 head-to-head matches in the last 10 years.
Venezuela, with 5 defeats in 5 trips, should not hold out too long for this Chilean selection which has the opportunity to relaunch in the race for qualification by gleaning 3 new points.
