[ad_1]

The visitors have a four-point lead at the top in the CONMEBOL qualifiers.

World Champions Argentina will travel to Colombia for a replay of the 2024 Copa America final. This game will be their eighth 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier fixture. Lionel Scaloni’s men come into this game after a comfortable 3-0 win over Chile at home.

La Albiceleste have won twelve back-to-back games coming into this fixture. They have only lost two of their last 64 games.

Colombia on the contrary played out a 1-1 draw against Peru. They currently sit at the third position on the standings with three wins and four draws to their name. The Tricolour surely have a score to settle but will need a lot when they take to the field against the high-flying side.

Kick Off

Venue: Estadio Metropolitano

Form

Colombia (in all competitions): D-L-W-W-D

Argentina (in all competitions): W-W-W-W-W

Players to watch

Luis Diaz (Colombia)

The Liverpool forward has brought his good run of form into the international break. He has produced the goods for Colombia. He saved Colombia’s unbeaten run with a late equalizer against Peru a couple of days ago.

Diaz’s pace coupled with his finishing abilities and creativity make him an all-round player. He has already scored three goals in the qualifiers so far and will want to add more goals to his tally.

Paulo Dybala (Argentina)

Paulo Dybala marked his return to the national team with a goal in the 91st minute and wrapped up a 3-0 win for the World Champions. La Joya was handed Argentina’s iconic number 10 jersey in the absence of skipper and eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi. Dybala the 30-year-old didn’t disappoint.

Dybala has mostly been out of action due to injuries, but his performance against Chile said otherwise.
