Chile bounced back from a defeat to Peru with a 2-0 win over Paraguay in its last game with Blackburn’s Ben Brereton opening the scoring.
The Stoke-born forward is expected to start up front again, but Chile will be without midfielder Charles Aranguiz who was sent off against Paraguay.
Predicted Chile starting XI: Bravo; Isla, Maripan, Diaz, Vegas; Nunez, Vidal, Pulgar, Meneses; Brereton Diaz, Sanchez.
| Position | Venezuela roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Farinez, Graterol, Romero |
| Defenders | Rosales, Hernandez, Chancellor, Ferraresi, A Martinez, Gonzalez, Carrillo, Mejias, Bonilla, Makoun |
| Midfielders | Rincon, Moreno, Machis, Soltedo, Penaranda, Casseres, J Martinez, Manzano, Castillo, Bello |
| Forwards | Aristeguieta, Cordova, J Hurtado, Ramirez, B Hurtado |
Eduard Bello scored his first international goal for Venezuela in its 2-1 win over Ecuador, which was only Venezuela’s second win of the campaign.
As a result, it only has seven points so far in qualifying, but still has a very slim chance of climbing the table if it can pick up three points against Chile.
Predicted Venezuela starting XI: Farinez; Hernandez, A Martinez, Ferraresi, O Gonzalez; Rincon, J Martinez; Bello, Machis, Penaranda; Ramirez.
