Bolivia vs Chile prediction, H2H and probable lineups – June 10, 2025
On Tuesday, June 10, at 22:00 Central European Time, Bolivia will host Chile in a Matchday 16 clash of the South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. Let’s break down the best bet for this encounter.
Bolivia
Bolivia, like their opponents, is having one of the worst qualifying campaigns in their history. The team sits eighth in the standings, just four points ahead of Chile, and still has a theoretical chance to fight for seventh place, which grants a spot in the intercontinental playoffs. Bolivia’s defense has been the weakest in this qualifying cycle—conceding 32 goals in 15 games. In the previous round, they lost 0-2 away to Venezuela. The national team is currently on a six-match winless streak: four defeats and two draws. Among their heaviest losses are a 6-0 thrashing by Argentina and a 4-0 defeat to Ecuador. However, Bolivia has been much more confident at home recently, going unbeaten in their last four matches on home soil.
It’s worth noting that in the first round of the current qualifiers, Bolivia beat Chile away, 2-1.
Chile
Chile is enduring a disastrous qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup. After 15 rounds, they sit at the bottom of the table with just 10 points and a goal difference of 9:22. Their away form has been particularly poor—six defeats and just one draw from seven matches, scoring only once and conceding 15. In their last three games, Chile failed to score at all, losing twice by the same 1-0 scoreline and drawing 0-0. In their most recent home match, Chile lost 0-1 to Argentina.
As for their head-to-head record away to Bolivia, Chile holds a slight advantage: in the last five visits, they have won three, drawn once, and lost only once.

Bolivia vs Chile match prediction
Bolivia traditionally performs well at home and is currently on a four-match unbeaten run in La Paz, showing their ability to stay resilient on home turf even in tough times. Despite going six matches without a win and generally struggling in the qualifiers, the home crowd gives them a crucial edge. On the other hand, Chile is also on a long winless streak and, despite poor away performances, has the upper hand in recent meetings with Bolivia and remains unbeaten in their last encounters. Taking all factors into account, a hard-fought contest is expected, but Chile’s chances of avoiding defeat look solid—the visitors have every opportunity to come away with at least a draw. My pick for this match: Chile not to lose at odds of 2.14.
