The qualifications for the 2026 WC in South America continue, as the teams will be giving their best in the last international break games of the year, so what should we expect from the most exciting matchups on November 22?
Paraguay have been one of the most solid defensive teams in the tournament. They have conceded only two goals in five matches, while Colombia have been having a lot of tight games as well. Both teams not scoring happened in five of the last seven matches for Los Cafeteros, so the odds of that happening again are good against a good defense in Paraguay.
Uruguay have been one of the most surprising teams in the tournament so far, as they are currently second in the standings. Nunez and de la Cruz are tied with Messi for first on the list of top scorers as well. The Celeste have kept clean sheets against Argentina and Brazil, but they have conceded to Colombia, Ecuador, and Chile, so their defense isn’t as good against weaker teams and can concede to Bolivia, who scored in four of their last six games.
This is the most anticipated matchup in the qualifications, and it’s one of the biggest matches in world football. The best football bookies have Brazil as the slight favorites in this game, as they will have the home-field advantage. Argentina have gone under 2 goals only twice in their last 23 matches, while Brazil are capable of scoring against any team at home, so this has the potential to be a high-scoring game.
