Sweden vs Chile Prediction & Betting tips
After a long period without football, the Swedish national team returns to the playing fields in a friendly for their participation in the next World Cup in Russia 2018 and thus this Friday at the Friends Arena in Solna they are preparing to receive a visit from a Chile that starts a new stage.
Sweden:
Those led by Janne Andersson got the unthinkable as it was leaving on the way to a world champion like Italy in the playoff playoff for the World Cup and did it without its main figure as it is Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Andersson left aside the role of Ibrahimovic (who resigned the selection) and put together a team with a lot of fighting spirit and there the result.
The Scandinavian team has been very difficult to overcome on their own ground during the qualifying campaign, so it all started with a 1-1 draw at home against Holland and then beat their next five games at home, which includes victories over France and Italy, and Chile have no plans to break that undefeated.
Chile:
Meanwhile, current champion of America could not close the elimination stage in South America in the best way and so with three defeats in their last four games they stalled in sixth place and now they will have to watch the World Cup from home, with which the generation more glorious that Chile has had in football will not be able to say goodbye through the front door.
This year begins a new process in Chile and for that reason the Argentine philosophy has been left aside, remember that from 2007 until last year Argentine trainers have passed like Marcelo Bielsa, Claudio Borghi, Jorge Sampaoli and Juan Antonio Pizzi, and for this year they have opted for a different football as is the Colombian and so has come a coach with a lot of rich experience as is Reinaldo Rueda who will want to debut with a good result in their friendlies against Sweden and Denmark.
The only time these teams met was 12 years ago in Solna, at that time the victory was for Sweden thanks to a goal from one of their figures of the time as Henrik Larsson.
