La Tri couldn’t have asked for a sharper start to their September international break, coming up with the three points to further cement their place inside the top four of the qualifying table with seven games gone.

Carlos Gruezo, a late call-up to the squad, is likely to keep his spot in midfield, as Gustavo Alfaro looks to back up a crucial win with another major scalp this weekend.

Predicted Ecuador starting XI: Galindez; Leon, Arreaga, Torres; Franco, Gruezo, Gaibor, Estupinan; Mena, Valencia, Rojas.

Position Chile roster
Goalkeepers Bravo, Arias, Castellon
Defenders Medel, Isla, Mena, Maripan, Roco, P Diaz, Vegas, N Diaz, Huerta*
Midfielders Vidal, Aranguiz, Pulgar, Jimenez, Valdes, Baeza, Alarcon, Galdames, Allende*, Nunez*
Forwards Vargas, Meneses, Palacios, Morales, Valencia

Having gone down narrowly to the Selecao for the second time in as many games, Martin Lasarte may view his side’s second trip of the international break as a must-win for their qualification hopes.

The lack of Alexis Sanchez, Ben Brereton Diaz and Francisco Sierralta still hurts however, while Guillermo Maripan and Erick Pulgar are now suspended for this clash, forcing changes.

Predicted Chile starting XI:  Bravo; Isla, P. Diaz, Medal, Roco, Mena; Aranguiz, Jimenez, Vidal; Vargas, Morales.
