Bolivia

LLLLLL 🆘

Bolivia will be hoping for a better result after the 1-3 Copa America defeat last time out to Panama.

In that game, Bolivia had 51% possession and 7 shots on goal with 4 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Bolivia was Bruno Miranda (69'). Panama had 13 attempts at goal with 6 on target. José Fajardo (22'), Eduardo Guerrero (79') and César Yanis (91') scored for Panama.

Bolivia have found it difficult to unlock defences of late. Their ‘goals for’ figure stands at just 2 vs opponents over the course of their previous six matches. In those meetings, Bolivia have also seen the tally of goals against them total 17. That pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward here, however.

Venezuela

LDWWWD

In their last fixture, Venezuela drew 1-1 in the Copa America match with Canada.

In that match, Venezuela had 55% possession and 16 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. The scorer for Venezuela was Salomón Rondón (65'). For their opponents, Canada had 16 attempts at goal with 7 of them on target. Jacob Shaffelburg (13') scored for Canada. The match went to penalties and was won 3-4 by Canada.

A succession of dependable performances from the Venezuela defensive unit has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 4 from their previous 6 clashes in total. During the same time, their own attack force has managed to score 8.

👥 Head to head

A review of their prior head to head clashes going back to 12/11/2015 tells us that Bolivia have won 2 of them and Venezuela 4, with the tally of draws being 0.

Loads of goals were seen in those games, too - 29 in all at an average of 4.83 goals per meeting.

The last league encounter featuring these clubs was WC Qualifiers - South America match day 15 on 28/01/2022 when it ended Venezuela 4-1 Bolivia.

In that match, Venezuela managed 55% possession and 23 shots on goal with 9 of them on target. The goalscorers were Salomón Rondón (24', 34', 67') and Darwin Machís (55').

For their opponents, Bolivia had 6 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. Bruno Miranda (38') was the scorer.

💭 Prediction

It looks to us that Bolivia will most probably see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

At the other end, Venezuela won’t find it easy to break down their defence although we do see them converting at least once as well.

We’re therefore anticipating a pretty comfortable 3-1 winning score for Bolivia after 90 minutes.
