Brazil v Chile betting tips: Hosts looking strong so far

Preview and odds for the quarter-final

The hosts are the clear favourites to retain their Copa America crown and we have analysed the odds to highlight some potential Brazil v Chile betting tips ahead of their quarter-final.

Brazil cruised through the group stage without defeat but cannot afford to get complacent as the knockout stage begins this weekend.

Their quarter-final kicks off at 1am UK time on Saturday and is live on the BBC iPlayer and BBC Sport website.

Brazil v Chile match odds

Brazil have done little to give their Copa America rivals encouragement hope they will slip up.

Being on home soil may not be much of an advantage due to the lack of spectators but Brazil topped Group B with 10 points and 10 goals.

The only blemish on their record was a 1-1 draw with Ecuador when top spot in the group was already guaranteed and Tite understandably opted to rotate his squad.

They had to come from behind to beat Colombia in their previous game so Brazil’s defence can be breached but they are 2/5 to win in 90 minutes, with a Brazil win and both teams to score available at 13/5.

Chile won the Copa America in 2015 and 2016 and will feel they can challenge for a third title in four editions if they can produce an upset here.

They had to settle for fourth place in Group A with one win and two draws from their four matches, scoring just three goals. The only teams to score fewer goals – Bolivia and Venezuela – have been eliminated.
