On the night of June 21-22, in the framework of the 3rd round of the group stage of the Copa America, the players of the national teams of Uruguay and Chile will come face to face. Which side will win?
Uruguay
The national team of Uruguay at the Copa America has held only one meeting so far, in which it lost to the Argentine team with a score of 0:1. It is noteworthy that the conceded goal was recorded at the very beginning of the match. With this setback, Charrois extended their unbeaten streak to four games, where they lost another game and drew twice. Both of these world games were held this year in the qualifying round for the 2022 World Cup. On June 4, the "sky blues" failed to cope with Paraguay on their field, having painted the world cup with a score of 0:0. With the same score, they played with Venezuela, but in their native walls. Note that the Uruguayans can not score for four meetings.
Chile

After that, "La Roja" minimally coped with Bolivia (1: 0), scoring a goal in the opening game. Now the Chileans have a 5-match unbeaten streak, which included 3 world and 2 wins. During this successful period, Chile managed to beat Bolivia in a friendly match (2: 1), as well as share points with the Argentines and the same Bolivians, but already in the qualifying stage for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
