OddsDigger’s Tips

Both teams are in need of a positive result this week in their South American World Cup qualifying category, given that neither of them are guaranteed progression to Russia quite yet.

Match Preview

Ahead of our Uruguay vs Argentina preview, the home side are currently sat in third place, with sixth-placed Ecuador just three points behind. For the visitors, they are even less safe, just two points above dropping out of the intercontinental play-off position.

Uruguay haven’t managed to pick up a win or a draw in their last two friendlies and three competitive fixtures, meaning that the pressure is certainly on them. Argentina’s new coach Jorge Sampaoli has had a positive effect on his group thus far.

But for a difficult away trip to face Bolivia, which won’t affect our Uruguay vs Argentina predictions or this week’s soccer odds, due to the high altitude, the visitors have been strong recently. Clean sheets against both Colombia and Chile show that progression.

Uruguay do boast a brilliant home record, however. Last time out on their own soil, they did lose 4-1 to qualification leaders Brazil, but prior to that, they had not suffered defeat in their previous 14 fixtures at home.

These two sides last met in Montevideo in qualifying back in 2013, with Uruguay pulling off a narrow 3-2 victory in a thrilling encounter. Goals from Luis Suarez, Cristian Rodriguez, and Edinson Cavani helped the hosts on their way – and Luis Suarez may be fit this time around after a muscle injury.

Uruguay vs Argentina Predictions and Betting Advice

Lionel Messi to guide Argentina to goals

Given that three points are vital for both teams and that Jorge Sampaoli is a coach who only sets his teams out to attack, there should be guaranteed goals in their affair, making Both Teams to Score at 1.70 with BetWay an excellent value indeed.

According to our Uruguay vs Argentina picks and football predictions, entertainment should be a certainty, with both nations boasting brilliant attacking talent. The must-win nature of the fixture means that if either team goes behind, they have to respond or risk missing out on Russia.
