Since their Copa America final triumph in 2016, Chile are winless in their last eight meetings with the Albiceleste.
It’s top versus bottom in CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying as reigning world champions Argentina travel to Santiago for a clash against a struggling Chile side on Thursday. While Lionel Scaloni’s men have already sealed their spot at the 2026 finals, the hosts face an uphill battle to make it to the 2026 World Cup. Notably, Chile have already missed the last two World Cups. They haven’t been on football’s biggest stage since 2014.
Once among the best in America, Chile’s current campaign has been underwhelming with just two wins from 14 matches. Their attack has been disappointing in the qualifying campaign as they have scored fewer than 10 goals. Despite a slight resurgence under Ricardo Gareca, La Roja sit bottom of the standings and are five points off the intercontinental playoff spot.
With tough fixtures ahead – including Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and Bolivia – Chile’s chances hang by a thread. Their recent record against Argentina is also concerning. Since their Copa America final triumph in 2016, Chile are winless in their last eight meetings with the Albiceleste.
