The “Albiceleste“ is undoubtedly one of the favourites at this Copa America. The „Gauchos“ start in group B and are traded there as a clear aspirant for group victory, just like Brazil in group A. In their group Messi and Co have to compete against Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile and Bolivia, among others. The Chileans are one of the thicker chunks.
The Argentinians have so far been unbeaten in the context of the World Cup qualification. However, the team finally stumbled. Only one of the last four qualifying matches was won. This threesome jumped out after a 2-0 against Peru. The other three approaches ended with a draw. Thus, the points were shared with Paraguay (1:1), Chile (1:1) and finally Colombia (2:2). Especially the draw against the Colombians is likely to be bitter, as Messi and Co were ahead 2-1 until shortly before the end.
It should also be mentioned that Argentina has made a strong start to the World Cup qualification and looked forward to two victories. Ecuador (1:0) and Bolivia (2:1) were defeated. With a record of three wins and three draws, 12 points were scored in the current qualification. The offensive scored nine goals. Five goals were conceded to the defense on the other side. The gap to Brazil has grown to six meters.
Argentina has twice won the Copa America. A look at the odds reveals the Gauchos alongside Brazil as one of the great favourites for the title. In addition to record holders Uruguay (15 titles), Argentina ranks second and holds 14 titles. However, the last one dates back to 1993. The “Albiceleste“ was in the final several times, but always had to be beaten. At the Copa 2019, it was only enough for third place.

Chileans may not be one of the biggest favourites in this Copa America, but they should not be underestimated in the competition. In Group B, Chile will make every effort to qualify for the KO round. The chances are by no means bad. With a win on the first match day against Argentina or at least a draw, a first step would be taken. After the duel, “la Roja“ will face Bolivia. The supposedly lightest opponent in the group.
In the course of the World Cup qualification, the Chileans showed great problems. In the first four attempts, only one victory against Peru (2:0) came about. Furthermore, two defeats and a draw had to be accepted. The score was split after a 2-2 with Colombia. Defeats against Uruguay and Venezuela took place after a 1-2 defeat. Especially the bankruptcy against Venezuela led those responsible to act and to a change of coach. Martin Lasarte has been on the coaching bench since February of this year.
The three previous matches brought a win in the friendly against Bolivia (2:1) and two more draws in the course of the World Cup qualification against Argentina and Bolivia. Above all, the last 1:1 suffered against the Bolivians can be regarded as a weak performance. In the World Cup qualification table Chile ranks only in 7th place and would thus miss the qualifying. The gap to the playoffs or a direct qualification place amounts to only two points and can be levelled without any problems. With four goals, Arturo Vidal is Chile’s best attacker in the World Cup qualification.
The Chileans have won Copa America twice so far. The victories date back to the years 2015, 2016. At Copa America 2019, “la Roja“ lost the match to Argentina in third place with 1-2 and finished fourth.

The quotas for this approach push Messi and Co into the light favourite role. Surely the Gauchos will want to start the competition with a win. However, the last direct duels between Argentina and Chile show that the Chileans can keep up. Only two of the last five attempts won the “Albiceleste“. Furthermore, two draws and one defeat came about. In the course of our betting tip forecast, it is difficult to determine a favorite. A duel at eye level is to be expected. In this, gates will fall on both sides.
