[Tips]:
Chile are ranked 55th in the world, higher than New Zealand's 85th.

In the first round, they defeated Cape Verde 4-2, showcasing their full offensive firepower.

New Zealand lost 2-0 in the first round, showing poor form, and their top scorer Chris Wood is absent, weakening their attacking threat.

Chile's South American technical style, with ball control and wing attacks, effectively counters New Zealand's straightforward and direct approach.

The AH line is -0.75 for the away side, indicating strong support for Chile.

Thus, Chile are expected to secure another victory.
 

[Recommended]:
Chile (-0.5/1)
