Colombia to Win
While Bolivia has a specific home-court advantage since they play they matches at a higher altitude, Colombia is clearly the better team and rightfully the favourite in this game. Also, Colombia beat Bolivia in their last two head-to-head meetings, so our prediction is for Colombia to win this match as well.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
In the last two duels between Bolivia and Colombia we've seen six goals, which means that they averaged 3.00 goals per game. In addition to this, Bolivia averaged 3.83 goals per game so far in the WC Qualifiers, while Colombia averaged 4.00 goals per game in the same competition. So, we expect to see at least three goals in this duel.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Since we expect to see some goals in this match, we also expect both teams to score. Both teams have scored in one of the last two meetings between Bolivia and Colombia, but this also happened in 83% of all Bolivia matches in the Qualifiers and in 50% of all Colombia matches in the same competition.

Bolivia vs Colombia preview: Will Colombia justify the favourite tag?
The last time when Bolivia reached the World Cup was in 1994, so it's clearly been a long time. However, it seems that Bolivian fans will have to wait some even longer since the team is currently eight in their qualification group with one win, two draws, and three losses after the first six games. Of course, the hope is still alive since there are many rounds to go and the teams are very close in points at the moment.
After coming third in the Copa America this summer, Colombia certainly got a bit of a boost in confidence for the upcoming matches in the WC Qualifiers. This will be more than welcome since could do a bit better – they have two wins, two draws, and two losses after the first six rounds. They are still on course to qualify, but it's a very close race.
