Sweden Chile betting prediction

Betting suggestion:

This duel puts in the field two good national teams, that although they do not appear in the elite of the world-wide football, they often make good campaigns and they even bother more expressive national teams. Sweden has a World Cup runner-up in 1958, while Chile is currently runner-up to the Confederations Cup and has won the last two Copa America titles. Both countries have important athletes who compete for some of Europe's top leagues. Thus, we expect a very balanced game, the draw being a good betting option, but with favoritism for Chile, which seems to have a more competitive squad.

Preview

Sweden and Chile face at Friends Arena, in what is to be the first friendly match of the year for both teams. There is no record of official head‑to‑heads between these two teams in the last 3 years. The last time they met, on 02‑06‑2006, the match ended with the final score: Sweden (1‑1) Chile. Chile registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Sweden

This is the first friendly match of the year for the home team, after having played 4 friendlies last year, with the following final scores: Norway (1‑1) Sweden, Portugal (2‑3) Sweden, Sweden (6‑0) Slovakia and Sweden (1‑2) Ivory Coast. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 9 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the WC Qualification Europe, they got an away tie against Italy by (0‑0). In the last 10 home matches Sweden has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times, but have turned the score around in 2.

Sweden will play their third game in 2018, marking the first of a series of four friendly matches to prepare for the World Cup, which will begin in June. The team has been unbeaten for four games, and comes from a win over Denmark in a friendly not chanceled by FIFA. In this unbeaten period, it is possible to notice the predominance of low scorers, with the Swedes only scoring three goals while conceding only one. The last official match of the Swedish National Team came from the replay of the World Cup qualifiers, when they drew away form home with Italy and thus secured their place in the World Cup, having won their first home match. Andersson is likely to keep the team in the 4-4-2, with Larsson in the midfield.

Confirmed Lineup: Kristoffer Nordfeldt, Mikael Lustig, Victor Lindelöf, Martin Olsson , Gustav Svensson , Sebastian Larsson, Viktor Claesson , Ola Toivonen, Marcus Berg, Emil Forsberg.
Coach: A. Granqvist, J. Andersson.

Analysis Chile

The away team plays its first friendly match of the year, after having played 3 friendlies last year, with the following final scores: Romania (3‑2) Chile, Russia (1‑1) Chile and Chile (3‑0) Burkina Faso. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 17 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 28 goals scored and 17 conceded. In their last match, for the WC Qualification South America, they got an away loss against Brazil by (3‑0). In the last 10 away matches Chile has won 2, tied 3 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 17 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 19 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Chile enter the field for their first 2018 match, which also marks the return to the field after the end of the World Cup qualifiers, meaning they have been out of action since the beginning of October 2017. The team does not live its best phase, having suffered four defeats in the last five matches, the last of them against Brazil. These defeats were decisive and ended up burying the Chilean dream of participating in the World Cup in Russia, having finished in sixth place, with the same number of points than Peru, who managed to play the recap and secured the place in the World Cup. The Chilean National Team competed for the 2014 World Cup, but was eliminated in the 8th finals by the Brazilian national team on penalties. In the last clashes, coach Pizzi set up the team in the 4-3-1-2, but now as the Colombian Rueda is in charge, there may be some changes. One of the absences is the goalkeeper Bravo, who asked for exemption from the call.

Confirmed Lineup: Johnny Herrera, Mauricio Isla, Enzo Roco, Guillermo Maripán, Jean Beausejour, Charles Aránguiz , Pablo Hernández, Arturo Vidal, Ángelo Sagal, E. Vargas, Alexis Sánchez.
Coach: M. Lasarte Arrospide.
