We said: Brazil 3-1 Chile
Unlike Brazil, the pressure is on Chile to perform and claim maximum points in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday, if their hopes of qualification are to remain alive. The Selecao, however, are unbeaten in 14 international matches on home soil and as strong favourites, they should be able to get the job done against a spirited Chile outfit. Read more.Data Analysis
