Poland are rated as lively outsiders for World Cup glory and can continue their preparations with a narrow win over Chile in Poznan.
Both teams won their last international friendlies but the Eagles look better equipped to maintain that momentum on Friday night.
Adam Nawalka’s solid side are regarded as a percentage pick at 91/100 in our Poland vs Chile betting tips.
A Look At Poland’s Betting Odds
Poland were impressive in qualifying for Russia 2018, with eight wins and a draw from 10 matches proving enough to finish five points clear of Denmark in their pool.
Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski was predictably the catalyst for that successful campaign, netting 16 times to be the most prolific marksman across all European groups.
The Eagles subsequently failed to hit the target in three friendlies, drawing 0-0 with Uruguay before losing 1-0 to both Mexico and Nigeria.
However, Lewandowski rediscovered his scoring touch in last week’s 3-2 victory over South Korea, along with Hull winger Kamil Grosicki and Napoli midfielder Piotr Zielinski, who bagged an injury-time winner.
Friday’s opponents will be tougher to break down, but 5/2 for Lewandowski to strike first is an obvious choice from the Poland vs Chile odds.
A Look At Chile’s Betting Odds
Chile will be watching the World Cup from afar after only managing sixth place in the South American qualifying section.
Reinaldo Rueda has begun a rebuilding process with some decent friendly results, including Monday’s 1-0 triumph over Serbia in Austria.
Alaves defender Guillermo Maripan popped up with a late strike as La Roja coped admirably without the likes of Arturo Vidal and Alexis Sanchez.
However, a quick four-day turn-around could test what is a largely inexperienced squad, which had previously lost 3-2 to Romania.
We’re adding 5/2 for the hosts to oblige by a one-goal margin to our Poland vs Chile betting predictions.
