Over the past decade, this La Roja generation and the reigning world champions have clashed in incredibly intense and fierce battles, heating their rivalry to a boiling point. At first, Chile had more success, but the times have changed, and it seems that Lionel Messi and his crew are going to have a last laugh.
Before Betting on Chile vs. Argentina
Chile’s opening match in the 2024 Copa America ended in a goalless draw against Peru. Alex Sanchez had a nice chance or two to prevent this from happening, but Chile’s biggest star failed to meet expectations this time. On the bright side, Chile’s defense was exceptional, effectively sealing all routes to their goal.
This solid defensive performance marked Chile’s second consecutive clean sheet and third in their last four matches. First, they held off Albania, then Paraguay, and now Peru.
Argentina efficiently secured a 2-0 victory against Canada without exerting too much effort, pocketing three points while keeping their roster healthy and free from suspensions. Gauchos now have six consecutive triumphs, indicating one hell of a form. During this streak, they’ve conceded only two goals while netting 14.
In an impressive run, Argentina has 20 victories and just one loss in its last 21 games. They’ve won the 2022 World Cup and fiercely began the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, plus they defeated various teams in friendly events.

Given their recent form, the Chilean team is clearly past its prime. Beating Argentina, who is in incredible form, would be a sensation, and since we don’t believe in such outcomes in this particular case, we pick Gauchos to triumph.
