Chile started their campaign with a 2-0 win over Ecuador courtesy of a Vidal penalty and a late goal from Edu Vargas. Victory in this match would all but book Jorge Sampaoli's side's spot in the last eight, with all of the other sides in their group having dropped points in their opening matches.
Matías Fernández was shown a second yellow card in stoppage time and will now be suspended for the clash against Mexico so Jorge Valdívia should keep his place, potentially playing the role of a false nine. Felipe Gutierrez looks set to replace injured Marcelo Diaz in the starting line-up. Up-front, coach Sampaoli will continue with the dynamic duo Vargas-Sanchez.
Mexico team played out an uninspiring 0-0 draw with Bolivia on Friday as a yung and unexperienced squad has been take to the Copa America by manager Miguel Herrera, with next month's Gold Cup very much El Tri's priority. They have not enjoyed a great run in recent times as they have managed just one win in the last five matches, a 3-0 win over Guatemala in a friendly back in May..
Veteran defender Rafa Marquez is set to miss the remainder of the group phase through a leg injury and Carlos Salcedo and Juan Carlos Valenzuela are fighting for a chance to replace him. Javier Aquino was bright from the bench last time out and could feature. José de Jesús Corona will be getting the start in net instead of Guillermo Ochoa
Mexico boast a won 6, drawn 3 record in 12 previous matches against the Chileans but there has been little between the pair in recent years. Their last encounter was a drab goalless draw in September last year.
