1's match for the third team of Copa America, with Japan facing Chile.
Second participation for the "blue samurai" in Copa America, after 1999 on Paraguayan stadiums. Then they were eliminated in the group stage and finished in the last position, against Paraguay, Peru and Bolivia. Constantly from the traditional Asian forces, with six consecutive World Cup entries. The roster is made up of footballers under 23, with the exception of experienced Kawasima (goalkeeper / Strasbourg), Sibsaki (mid / Getafe) and Okazaki (striker / Leicester).
Chile is entering the tournament as a holder and two consecutive Copa America games. It certainly does not have the depth of the last few years, but it has tremendous experience and quality from similar games. Arturo Vidal (midfielder / Barcelona) and Alexis Sanchez (striker, Man. United), the names that stand out with Reinaldo Rueda being in the technical leadership since February of 2018.
Premier for the Copa America winner, with Chile having a clear lead in winning. Japan is lagging behind in quality, experience, momentum, and I just hope it's easy to confirm the double. I take the risk and bet in favor of "roha" with a handicap of at least one goal, at the tempting 1.97 of Winmasters.
