Alexis Sanchez is a doubt for this weeks 2018 World Cup qualifier against Brazil due to a knock, Chile boss Jorge Sampaoli confirms. Sanchez, who is in a right form after scoring 5 goals in 2 games in Premier League, might be forced to sit out of international fixtures against Brazil and Peru due to a knee injury.
"They are both in the same condition. I cannot confirm at this stage if either will be fit to face Brazil. Of course, they are very valuable to us but I am confident that if they are not available we have the squad to be competitive against Brazil or Peru," Sampaoli said in a press conference.
Chile will face Brazil on Friday and Peru five days' later.
