Uruguay are desperate to get a win against Chile to kick start their Copa America campaign after suffering a loss against Argentina. Uruguay conceded a first-half goal by Guido Rodriguez from a set-piece and couldn't recover from the deficit. Starting with a defeat is never good so La Celeste are hoping to achieve success this time out against Chile.
Chile, on their part, have begun the tournament unbeaten from the first two games. They faced Argentina in the opening game as well, managing to draw the game to cut off an excellent free-kick from Lionel Messi. Chile then easily shrugged off Bolivia's challenge in the next game. The Reds are second-placed level on points (7) with Argentina on top in the South Zone (Zona Sur) group.

URU vs CHL Dream11 Fantasy Team
GK: Claudio Bravo (Chl)
DEF: Mauricio Isla (Chl), Gary Medel (Chl), Jose Gimenez (Uru), Giovanni Gonzalez (Uru)
MID: Lucas Torreira (Uru), Arturo Vidal (Chl), Eric Pulgar (Chl), Federico Valverde (Uru)
FW: Eduardo Vargas (Chl), Luis Suarez (Uru)
Claudio Bravo has been reliable in between the sticks for Chile so the veteran keeper easily gets into fantasy teams ahead of Muslera. Gary Medel has been impressive in his newfound role as a center-back. Both Vargas and Suarez are yet to find the back of the net but they are expected to score soon. Especially the Uruguayan whose incredible goal-scoring exploits handed Atletico Madrid the Spanish league title.
Match Prediction: Uruguay 1-1 Chile
It will be hard to separate the two in the game as it most definitely be cagey and safety first approach with some individual brilliance providing a spark. A point gain is useful for Chile but not for Uruguay who have to do it all in the next few fixtures.
