Chile vs Bolivia in Copa America 2016 – 'More than a Game': Defending Champs Looking to Bounce Back After Dropping Opener; Live Streaming, Start Time, Ticket Price and TV Channels
No. 3 Chile is a Favorite to Win Match-Up Against Lowest-Ranked Bolivia
The Chile national football team came into the tournament with a lot of pride and, rightfully so, after being crowned as the champions of Copa America 2015. However, just a few days into the tournament, the la Roja squad members have found themselves in a rather perilous situation after conceding a victory to the Argentines in their Group D opener, 1-2.
Now, they are in need of a win over the Bolivia national team to put themselves in a good position to enter the quarterfinal round. However, the La Verde team is currently in the same situation and is out to go all-out for their own version of a victory.
The match between the two squads will commence at around 7 p.m. ET tonight, June 10, and will take place at the Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
Chile is Heavily-Favored to Win
Currently ranked in third place of the FIFA rankings, Chile is expected to make short work of Bolivia, which is the lowest-ranked team coming into the tournament at no. 79. Their matchup history also speaks of the mastery of La Roja over La Verde after Chile posted a 3-1 victory against Bolivia back in 2013 and a 5-0 thrashing in their 2015 match.
Chile is also hoping that they can bounce back after their sorry loss to Argentina in their opening game. The Argentines even played sans Lionel Messi, but was still able to pull off a victory.
Bolivia is Also in a Must-Win Situation
The La Verde squad was not any more fortunate in their own opening game after dropping it against the Panamanian team 1-2. The loss was a real heartbreak for Bolivia after giving up the deciding goal with only three minutes left in the game. They are hoping to turn the tide against Chile.
The fans can watch the two teams slug it out on TV through Channel 11, UniMas and UDN. For those who are hoping to catch it live via online streaming, they can check out FoxSoccer2Go and DirecTV live.
