Romania failed to qualify for the World Cup in a theoretically accessible group and one that, at least, allowed them to fight more seriously for the dream of re-appearing in a final phase. He finished in the 4th place of Group E of the European qualification zone, behind leaders Poland, Denmark and Montenegro with just 13 points from 10 games.
In the first round of qualifying, the Romanians gave a good response, with three wins (Turkey, 2-0, Israel, 2-1, Sweden, 1-0) and only one defeat against the Netherlands ( 0-3).
Chile are probably the most disappointing team in Italy, and were surprised by their refusal to qualify for Russia, despite having finished with the same 26 points from Peru in the South American zone.
Since then, they have only played twice in March against Sweden (2-1) and Denmark (0-0). Reinaldo Ruera is the “new” picker, having come to the Chilean national team coach in January of this year.
For this game, Rueda left out stars like Alexis or Vidal and took advantage of the absence of the 2018 World Cup to give opportunity to a different range of players.
Romania is inferior but it has managed to present pleasant football and, more importantly, good results.
I foresee, therefore, a balanced match and with the two coaches to make several experiments, I believe that it is natural some lack of routines and there are not many chances of goal.
Given the balance of the two sets, I see a good chance of a draw at the end of the 90 minutes.
