BRA vs CHI Dream11 Prediction: Defending champions Brazil look to clinch their 10th Copa America title this year as the business end of the competition kicks off for the team against the much-spirited Chile. Brazil has won the Copa America title 9 times in their history and would be defending their Copa America title this time. Chile were crowned South America’s kings in 2015, 99 years after the first edition when they hosted the tournament.
Brazil had a cakewalk in the Group stages where they won 3 out of the 4 matches and topped the group. However, they struggled in their last two matches. Brazil’s 10-game winning streak came to an end in the game against Ecuador. Eder Militao’s first-half strike was canceled out by Angel Mena’s goal in the 55th minute. Their opponents tonight, Chile, have been inconsistent in the tournament, winning just 1 out of their four group stage matches and the sole win came against a lowly Bolivia. Draws against Argentina and Uruguay showed their capabilities in holding onto the game till the 90th minute.
Date: 3 July, Saturday Time: 5:30 AM (IST) Venue: Estadio Olimpico Nilton Santos, Rio de Janeiro

With expectations as high as ever, the Selecao should be able to negotiate their way through a tricky clash with Chile on Saturday, given their slightly superior quality all over the pitch. At full strength, their attack should have enough to break down Chile’s ageing back line, while they have shown plenty of solidity at the back, shipping just two goals from their four games so far. In our BRA vs CHI Today Match Prediction odds, we back for a 3-1 win for Brazil in this match.
