Chile vs Ecuador Predictions and Betting Tips



Chile's three-game winning streak would be put to the test on Wednesday as they welcome Ecuador to Santiago on Wednesday. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.

Chile, with two wins in three games against Ecuador, would fancy their chances, however, La Tri has proved themselves to be top-quality opponents judging by their World Cup Qualifying results. Who comes away with the win?

The hosts in search of fourth straight victory

Chile's slow start did write them off at the beginning of the qualifiers, however, their recent form has put them in the thick of things with the Chileans currently in 4th position. Having picked up three points against Paraguay and Venezuela last month, we saw them make it three wins on the bounce last time out via a 1-0 win against Paraguay once again. Chile's form has seen them rise as high as 4th place, however, they would need to tread carefully with Colombia and Uruguay on the same number of points as they are.

On the other hand, Ecuador has had a terrific qualifiers campaign as they currently sit in 3rd position on the standings. Having amassed 20 points from 13 games, they're currently the best of the rest with four points separating them from Wednesday's opponents, as well as Colombia and Uruguay who are in 5th and 6th respectively. Although La Tri has been struggling with inconsistency in recent games, they managed their first win in three qualifiers games against Venezuela last time out.
