USA W vs Chile W PREVIEW & PREDICTION 16/06/2019

Anyone who thought before the World Cup that the team from the USA would have already exceeded their zenith with some players beyond the age of 30, will have to think about this thesis after the first appearance of the United States at this World Cup probably again. With a 13-0 over Thailand, the USA celebrated the highest victory in the World Cup history of football. If the Americans were not there before then they are the team that should be avoided at best at the World Cup in France. On matchday two Chile will be the opponent, or should we speak better of a victim?

The chances for the outsiders are certainly not good. The bookmakers offer on a victory of the US-Americans just quotas of up to 1.03. Of course it is not worthwhile to place a bet. It will probably be a clear success again. However, we would not be predicting a renewed 13-0 draw before kick-off between the US and Chile, although we do not rate the Chileans much more than Thailand. Nevertheless, we think that the US girls will step a little on the brakes, because in the last group game still waiting for the difficult match against Sweden and then it would also be very helpful if you are still fresh and largely rested in the playoffs. We think that a 3: 0 or 4: 0 would be enough to underline the ambitions again. For Chile, who held well against Sweden for a long time and lost 2-0, it will be an enormous challenge to protect their own housing as well as possible. That they manage to score their own goal, however, seems unlikely. We would therefore advise against putting in the game between the USA and Chile a tip that both teams meet. The kick-off to the group match at the Women’s World Cup 2019 between the USA and Chile in the Prince Park of Paris takes place on 16.06.2019 at 17:00 clock.

UNITED STATES :

The USA are aiming for their next victory at the World Cup in France. Basically, there is not the slightest doubt about that, because the statistics speak a clear language. The US girls were present at each World Cup and have won the second group game in seven out of eight cases. In addition, the US has lost only one of the past 39 international matches. There were six wins in a row, five of them even without a clean sheet. In addition, the Americans presented themselves in Torlaune. In the last five internationals, the players of Jillian Ellis have scored an average of six goals per game. In addition, this team is always fast in the game and in about two-thirds of all cases in the last weeks and months in the first quarter of an hour has taken the lead. Perhaps it would be worth the trouble to look at the odds for a quick US leadership before the game between the US and Chile.

Of course we have to come back to the threesome for the World Cup kick-off against Thailand. In the first half everything was basically in the frame. Alex Morgan, Rose Lavelle and Lindsey Horan made for a 3-0 lead and already for the decision. In the second section Thailand fell apart completely. Alex Morgan scored a total of five times, leading the scoring list at this World Cup. Rose Lavelle has been successful twice.

Samantha Mewis contributed two goals. The other scorers were Lindsey Horan, Megan Rapinoe, Mallory Pugh and Carli Lloyd. In retrospect, many critics came out of their corners and did not agree that the US cheered every goal frenetically, because the opponent was given little respect. You can see that either way. Of course, Alex Morgan also has their say and the striker makes it clear that every World Cup goal is an event that needs to be celebrated accordingly. After the game, the poor Thai girls were comforted after all. This should conclude this discussion and focus on Chile to secure the next victory on Sunday.

Chile:

The qualification for the World Cup in France was already a great success for the Chilean ladies. For the first time ever you could qualify for the title fights. Although Group F has a great deal of it with their opponents from Sweden and the USA, they have not lost sight of the goal of qualifying for the last sixteen. A narrow defeat by the USA and a reasonably clear victory against Thailand might be enough to get into the next round as one of the top four group thirds. However, you have to win first, because in the last nine games La Roja Feminina has not won. The World Cup would therefore not be the worst time to end this dry spell. But we still do not believe that it makes sense to make a prediction for a successful match of the team from South America already in the duel between the US and Chile.

However, Chile has delivered very well in the opening match against Sweden. For a long time they have not given the Swedes the big scoring chances and maybe it would have ended at 0-0, if the game in the 72nd Minute should not be interrupted because of a storm. It took 40 minutes before the match went on. This break did not seem to have helped the Chileans, as they ended up 0: 2 and their defeat at the World Cup debut was perfect. For a long time, however, you did not stop there.

The look of coach Jose Letelier is only forward. The same applies to defender Rocio Soto, who is pathetically announcing before the match against the USA to put everything into this match in order to get a good result for Chile. In terms of motivation, there should be no problems in the team of Chileans. It will only show if the team is able to channel them optimally.


PREDICTION: Over 4,5 goals @ 1,57
