Argentina will be looking to move one step closer to qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar when they travel to face Uruguay in the wee hours of Saturday morning.
La Albiceleste have been in a rich vein of form, winning 4 of their last 5 and are second behind Brazil in the race for Qatar. The hosts on their part are barely clinging onto the fifth spot and will be looking to make a late push up the table.
This should be an interesting tie. We will focus on Cyberbet welcome bonus prices and options in this preview.
URUGUAY
Oscar Tabarez’s side have a perfect symmetry of 4 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses from the 12 qualifiers but that symmetry has left them in 5th and final qualifying place, just 3 points clear of 6th placed Chile but tied on points with 4th placed Ecuador with 16 points.
Tabarez will demand a response from his charges following their 4-1 whopping at the hands of table-toppers Brazil last time out and 3-0 to Argentina before that in the reverse fixture.
La Celeste will draw some inspiration from their solid home record in the qualifiers where they have only lost once in 6 qualifying home games
ARGENTINA
Argentina could seal qualification with a win here, but that’s pegged on other results favouring them. They have been in tremendous form, going unbeaten in 25 competitive matches over the last two years, which includes 11 qualifiers.
Their return of 25 points from 7 wins and 4 draws has them perched comfortably in 2nd place behind their bitter rivals who have had a near-flawless campaign thus far with 10 wins and a draw for 31 points.
There is uncertainty on the status of their talisman Lionel Messi for this match but even in his absence, they should still have enough weapons in their arsenal to handle the hosts.

URUGUAY VS ARGENTINA MATCH PREVIEW AND BETTING TIPS
This should be a much closer game than the reverse fixture which Argentina won 3-0 at the beginning of October. Uruguay’s defense has collapsed spectacularly in their last couple of matches but with pressure mounting on them to get their act together, we expect an improvement on that end of the pitch to be the starting point for them. That notwithstanding, we still feel Argentina have what it takes to get a result here. We are therefore backing Argentina to win and Under 2.5 goals to be scored @ 1.84 as the first of our betting prediction today.
With both sides desperate for a win, we expect the game to be somewhat physical here. Uruguay though are not at full strength and will therefore find themselves backpedalling for the better part of the game. As such they will potentially be on the other end of the stick as far as bookings are concerned. Cyberbet have them priced at 2.23 to receive more bookings and we feel there is great value in picking this as our final call here.
