After missing the World Cup in Qatar, Colombia is fully focused on the qualifications for the tournament that will be played in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. After seven rounds, Colombia are in a good position with 13 points from seven matches. In the previous match, they played 1-1 on the road against Peru. Colombia were a significantly better side, as they finished the match with nine shots at the goal, more than the opponent, but in the end, the teams shared the points. 

After winning the Copa America competition during the summer, Argentina turned its attention back to World Cup qualification. They are in a great position with 18 points from seven matches, and if Lionel Scaloni's team continues like that, they will soon secure a place in the next World Cup. In the previous game, Argentina won 3-0 at home against Chile. Guests defended well in the first half, but the home side scored three goals in the second half and made another big step to the main competition. 

Colombia vs Argentina pick: Under 2.5 goals

Interestingly, five of the last six matches between Colombia and Argentina finished with two or fewer goals. The previous h2h match was in the Copa America final this year when Argentina won 1-0 after extra time.

Colombia team news

In the absence of Davinson Sanchez, Carlos Cuesta and Jhon Lucumi were a pair of center-backs against Peru. However, after suffering a knock in the first half, Cuesta had to come off at the start of the second half. He was replaced by Yerry Mina, who received a yellow card and will serve the suspension in the upcoming tie against Argentina. The head coach, Nestor Lorenzo, said that Cuesta would be fine. If the defender can't play, Yerson Mosquera could be another option.

Argentina team news

After a big 3-0 win against Chile, Argentina's head coach Lionel Scaloni was very satisfied. He said, "We played well. There is always something to correct, but it is true that, due to what the rival can leave you, the team was in the opponent's half, quickly recovered the ball, and created chances. I couldn't tell you what level the second half is at compared to those we have played, but in the end, when you are in the opponent's half, it is about trying to be precise, and when these guys are precise, they normally end up in goal situations. When they are not, we have to recover the ball to attack again. That is the idea."
