Germany v Chile Betting Preview – Confederations Cup 22nd June

This should be a pretty good contest between these two. You have Germany though who have taken pretty much a B-squad with them to the tournament though against a full strength Chile outfit. Germany were given a scare by Australia in their opener whereas Chile looked strong on their route to taking a win over Cameroon. Will the South Americans be too much for the young Germans to handle?

Germany v Chile Betting Tips

Hopefully, this one lives up to its top billing because it should be one of the best games of the group stage. Germany took a 3-2 win over Australia, the scoreline not really reflecting how much better Germany were in the game. The thing is, Germany have left most of their A-squad back at home and so Joachim Low is experimenting here. They have some good young players in here. Young Timo Werner looks a good 11/8 anytime goalscorer option with Sandro Wagner and Lars Stindl at 138 so they aren’t short of youthful firepower. Germany have met Chile before and each of their previous competitive meetings have all been at the the World Cup, with the Germans winning all three of those meetings with seven goals scored and just the once conceded. The most recent coming together between the two of them ended in a 1-0 win for Germany in a 2014 friendly. This is likely to be an open game as that’s the natural German way and over 2.5 goals is a price of 3/5 at bet365.

Matches involving Germany at the Confederations Cup average 4.3 goals in their history and therefore this should be great with the threat that Chile poses. There is a quote of 8/15 on both teams to score in the match as well. Chile beat Cameroon 2-0 in their opening game and the margin of victory could easily have been much bigger than that. The South Americans were well on top in the game and had to be patient for their rewards, helped by Alexis Sanchez coming off the bench as well. Chile do look very strong and solid and in the bet365 correct score market at Chile 2-1 option is right up there at 9/1 and will have some appeal because Germany’s defence did concede those goals against the much-weaker Aussies. This is really going to be a battle for top spot in the group, even though both of them are likely to get through to the next stage regardless of what happens in this clash. A high-scoring game is expected as Chile will have more space than they did against Cameroon to express themselves.

Germany v Chile Predictions

Chile to win: Chile looked strong, as we expected in their opening fixture in getting past Cameroon. Germany dodged a bit of a bullet in their opening game and Chile will pose a much bigger threat to the Germans than the Aussies. Both teams to score, Chile to win.
