Argentina vs Uruguay: the recent form of both teams:
Leo Messi put his side ahead with an eye-catching free-kick after 33 minutes against Chile. However, it was not enough to see off Argentina to the finishing line. They missed several sitters and couldn’t convert their chances and finally lost their lead on the hour mark. Although Emiliano Martinez went the right way and saved Arturo Vidal’s penalty, he was powerless to stop Eduardo Vargas from pouncing on the rebound to earn a point for his side. This was Argentina’s third straight game without a win.

Talisman and captain Lionel Messi will lead the Argentine side tomorrow. Sadly that pinpoint freekick from Messi wasn’t enough for the win as his team missed several sitters and the match ended up in a disappointing draw. Lionel Scaloni may opt to shuffle his pack as he has no scarcity of attackers on his bench. As a result, Messi’s recent Barcelona teammate Sergio Aguero may find his name in the starting lineup ahead of Gonzalez. However, the mid field trio is expected to remain the same.
Argentina possible starting lineup:
E Martinez; Montiel, Martinez Quarta, Otamendi, Tagliafico; De Paul, Paredes, Lo Celso; Messi, Aguero, L Martinez
Uruguay:
