Argentina vs Uruguay Preview, Prediction and Match Analysis
Argentina head into this encounter in excellent form after securing a convincing 3-0 international friendly victory over Benin. Nicolás Otamendi opened the scoring before Nico Paz and Lionel Messi added two more goals to complete a comfortable win. Argentina have been particularly impressive in attack, scoring 19 goals across their last six matches and averaging 3.17 goals per game.
Uruguay also arrive with confidence after an emphatic 6-1 victory over India in their previous friendly. Darwin Núñez, Maximiliano Araújo, Rodrigo Zalazar, Juan Manuel Sanabria and Rodrigo Aguirre all contributed to an impressive attacking performance. Uruguay have scored 14 goals across their last six matches, while conceding nine during that period.
The head-to-head record favours Argentina, who have won four of the last six meetings against Uruguay. La Celeste have managed just one victory, with the remaining encounter ending in a draw. Their previous World Cup qualifying meeting finished in a narrow 1-0 victory for Argentina, with Thiago Almada scoring the decisive goal in March 2025.
Both teams have demonstrated impressive attacking quality recently, which could make this an entertaining South American encounter. Argentina will look to dominate possession and use the creativity of Lionel Messi and their attacking players, while Uruguay will rely on their physical approach, pressing and the pace of Darwin Núñez to create problems.
Argentina's recent consistency and stronger head-to-head record give them an advantage heading into this fixture. However, Uruguay's attacking performance against India shows that they have enough quality to trouble the Argentine defence. The midfield battle could prove decisive, with both sides expected to create dangerous opportunities.
Argentina vs Uruguay Prediction
Uruguay should have enough attacking quality to find the net, but Argentina's excellent recent form and superior head-to-head record make them favourites. Expect a competitive encounter with goals at both ends, but Argentina should secure a narrow victory.
Predicted Score: Argentina 2-1 Uruguay.
