Portugal kick-start their World Cup preparation games on Saturday evening when they host Chile. The two nations are 35 places apart in the FIFA Rankings. Chile didn’t make it for the World Cup after finishing 9th in CONMEBOL qualification, while Ronaldo and co secured qualification as Group F winners with 13 points from 6 matches. Let’s look at both sides closely and see which betting angles make sense!

Friendly International
Portugal and Chile have only faced each other four times in their entire football histories. A Seleção leads the all-time head-to-head record with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. The average goals tally per game was 3.25.
Portugal team overview
A Seleção enter this clash following a dominant run, where they won 4 of their 6 World cup qualification matches while scoring 20 goals.
Roberto Martínez’s side has won 5 of their last 8 fixtures, proving their elite consistency across all competitions.
This lethal efficiency is amplified on home soil, where they have won seven of their last eight games in Portugal, including that 9-1 win over Armenia in the final match of World cup qualification campaign.
The undisputed keyman anchoring the attack is captain Cristiano Ronaldo. The 41 year old comes into this fixture after winning the Saudi Pro League and would look start with Bruno Fernandez who won the Premier League player of the year award.

Chile team overview
La Roja enter this clash struggling for momentum, having failed to win any of their final 6 World Cup qualification matches while scoring zero goals.
Ricardo Gareca’s side have improved recently though. They won each of their last three friendlies, beating Peru twice 2-1 and Russia 2-0.
But with the win in Moscow their first in 10 road games, travelling to Portugal becomes a much difficult challenge.
The undisputed keyman anchoring the attack is veteran forward Eduardo Vargas, who remains the squad's active top scorer. For team news, star defender Guillermo Maripán is out with an injury.

Prediction
A Seleção are primed to dominate this clash on home soil. While La Roja found some goalscoring form in recent friendlies, their atrocious away record and Maripán's injury absence make them vulnerable against a lethal frontline. With Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes firing, expect Portugal to overwhelm the visitors while conceding once. I am backing a commanding 3-1 win for Portugal.
Three reasons we expect both teams to score
- Chile have scored in each of their last three matches.
- Bets on btts – yes won in three of the previous four H2H meetings.
- Portugal failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last five matches.
