Uruguay versus Argentina is a highly anticipated matchup for the World Cup Qualification CONMEBOL (South America) on Friday night. It’s a top-of-the-table clash, with Argentina sitting on top of the standings with 25 points from 12 matches. However, the second-placed Uruguay will shoot for a home win to slash the 5-point difference between them and the reigning World Cup champions.
They have been excellent at home in this competition, avoiding defeat in their last six assignments. Le Celeste secured a 1-1 draw with Brazil in their latest assignment, showing why they are an emerging force in the South American football scene. However, Argentina will likely complicate things for the hots, as they want to cement their top spot in the standings. Lionel Scaloni’s men won 1-0 in their most recent assignment against Peru, showing why they are also good at grinding out results. They are an exciting +200 betting underdog on Friday.

Our Uruguay vs Argentina Prediction
Argentina are on top of the standings thanks to their Skipper, Lionel Messi, who tops the scoring charts with 6 goals in this competition. However, the former Barcelona star will not play against Uruguay and Brazil. In his absence, Inter Milan’s Lautaro Martinez and Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez will lead the goal-searching mission. Uruguay, on the other hand, will rest their hopes on Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez to get the goals. He already has five goals in this competition. Without Messi in the team sheet, we expect a close game with a 1-0 win for the hosts or a 0-0 draw. Our prediction for Uruguay vs Argentina: Under 1.5 goals to hit.
