Chile are the defending Copa America Champions and it was Argentina who they beat in the final last year. Chile were hosts in 2015 and won the tournament for the first time, They won five games in a row to reach the final and then drew with Argentina before winning the tournament on penalties. Form since then hasn't  been too bad either and they are currently fourth in the South American World Cup qualifying table with three wins, a draw and two defeats.  The build-up over the past few weeks hasn't been so impressive with losses to Jamaica at home and a loss to Mexico. One of those losses in the World Cup qualifying group was a home defeat by Argentina who are third in the table after a slow start that saw them get just two points from their first three games but three straight wins since. Argentina are the favourites to win this tournament, hardly surprising when you can boast a strikeforce of Messi, Aguero and Higuain. They've won this tournament 14 times and a win here will equal the record of 15 held by Uruguay. Argentina haven't won Copa America since 1993 so a win is long overdue with three losses in the last four finals, two by penalties. Argentina seem to be in the better form of the two and can get the win here.
