Venezuela vs Uruguay Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in World Cup Predictions
Uruguay are eyeing a better outing when they play away to Venezuela in the sixth round of matches in 2022 World Cup qualifiers in South America. They are coming from a 0-0 draw with Paraguay which left them fifth in the standings with seven points. Meanwhile, Venezuela, their hosts remain ninth with three points after managing just one win in their opening five games. Venezuela dropped by a place after a 3-1 loss at the hands of Bolivia in their last game, which was their fourth defeat in the qualifiers. To be able to make positive steps in the qualifiers, Venezuela must improve on their attack; they have failed to score in three of the last five matches. Their only win in these qualifiers came in the only game they scored more than a goal – against Chile. They also have issues in defence, failing to keep a clean sheet in the last five matches. Venezuela do not have great history in World Cup qualification matches; in the last 24, they’ve managed just three wins.
Uruguay are unbeaten against Venezuela in their last two meetings and they will go here in need of three points after managing just one in the last two matches. They have also failed to score in the last two matches and seven points from five matches doesn’t reflect the true quality of the team. Manchester United forward Edison Cavani is set to miss this game too as he serves a two-match suspension but looking at Venezuela’s performance in the qualifiers, Uruguay should cope. Three times in the last five matches, Uruguay have scored two or more goals and in each of their last four away matches, they have scored two goals or more. It is in defence that Uruguay need a lot of improvement, after conceding two or more in three of their last four away matches. However, facing a side that’s the lowest scorers in the qualifiers and with one of the leakiest defences should build confidence in the visitors.

Our Venezuela vs Uruguay Prediction
Uruguay go to this game as favorites, with a tried and tested attack led by Luis Suarez. After failing to score in the last two matches, they will sure be fired up in this game. However, their defensive problems will still be in focus. Away from home they have one clean sheet and Venezuela will be keen to exploit this factor. With Uruguay struggling defensively, Venezuela scoring at home is a possibility, but we don’t expect them to shut out Uruguay completely so go for over 2.5 goals here.
