Venezuela and Bolivia will meet in an international friendly on Wednesday.
The two clubs have met 34 times in soccer history. Venezuela holds the edge with 13 wins, 11 draws, and 11 ties and has been the dominant side in the recent games. Since 1997 - a span of 17 matches - Venezuela has won seven games and Bolivia has only won three; the other seven ended in draws. Bolivia might be a bit of an underdog next to Venezuela, but the team scored the most dominant win of the matchup in that span: a 5-0 drubbing in a World Cup qualifier on June 3, 2001.
According to Goal.com, there could be the starting lineups for the match:
Venezuela: Dani Hernández; Alexander Gonzalez, Oswaldo Vizcarrondo, Gabriel Cichero, Roberto Rosales; Agnel Flores, Franklin Lucena, César González, Juan Arango; Josef Martínez y Salomón Rondón.
Bolivia: Sergio Galarza; Edemir Rodríguez, Edward Zenteno, Ronald Raldes, Abraham Cabrera, Marvin Bejarano; Pedro Azogue, Walter Veizaga, José Luis Chávez, Rudy Cardozo; Juan Carlos Arce
Prediction: Venezuela has been the dominant side lately and has also been the superior squad. Simply looking at the CONMEBOL standings in the World Cup qualifiers establishes Venezuela as a club on the rise. Look for them to pull off a 2-0 win over Bolivia.
Kick-Off starts at 7:30 p.m. EST.
The match will be not be broadcast in the USA
