Uruguay have already booked their spot in next year's World Cup under boss Marcelo Bielsa, and will now have their eyes set on the tournament next year.

The same cannot be said for Chile, who find themselves at the foot of the qualification table heading into the final game, without a win in their last five.

Nevertheless, for Bielsa's men, this game represents precious minutes to warm up to the main event next summer.

Chile v Uruguay: Match Preview

Chile may be glad to wave goodbye to the World Cup CONMEBOL qualifiers, having endured 11 losses and four draws since it set off in 2023, with only two wins to their name.

Nevertheless, they will want to put on a show for their home crowd, perhaps in apology for their poor recent showings, if nothing else.

They boast Derby County loanee striker Ben Brereton Diaz in their ranks as the most eye-catching name to British audiences, with the 26-year-old having surprisingly declared for the country a few years ago.

FEATURE: Who are the biggest clubs in South America

With a talented pool of players to draw upon with a World Cup on their horizon, it will be as competitive as ever for the Uruguayans.

Led by former Leeds boss Bielsa, they have a midfield of Federico Valverde, Rodrigo Bentancur and Manuel Ugarte, with plenty of places in and around that unit still up for grabs.

There may be no work left to do in terms of the table, but that doesn't mean job done for Bielsa's charges.

FourFourTwo's Prediction

Chile 0-3 Uruguay

Based on recent form, this game may have been something of a mismatch anyway, but FourFourTwo predicts that the divergent spirits in each camp, mixed with the seeming gap in quality, could make for a difficult night for the hosts.
