Venezuela are set to host Chile on October 17 in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Venezuela are coming into this game on the back of a big result against Brazil, holding them to a 1-1 draw in the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers. They are currently on a two-game unbeaten run, having won 1-0 against Paraguay in their first game in the qualifiers.
Chile won their previous game against Peru, scoring two goals and keeping a clean sheet. They have picked up four points in three games, scoring three goals and conceding three but are unbeaten in their last two games as well.
A win would propel either side to second position, level on points with Brazil if other results go their way.
