Venezuela have perhaps never had a better chance to qualify for the World Cup. The Vinotinto currently occupy the sixth, and final, sport for the 2026 jamboree and are level on points (10) with continental giants Brazil. The Copa America quarter-finalists have beaten Chile and Paraguay already in qualifying, while manager Argentine boss Sergio Batista will face the country of his birth determined to cause an upset. In-form striker and captain Salomon Rondon will provide the main goal threat.
Argentina top the group but will be looking to get back on track after a 2-1 defeat to second-placed Colombia. The reigning world and South American champions will welcome back talismanic captain Lionel Messi, who missed the previous round of fixtures. Paulo Dybala, Nicolas Gonzalez, and Alejandro Garnacho are all late withdrawals from Lionel Scaloni’s squad, while goalkeeper Emi Martinez serves a two-match ban after his antics against Colombia a month ago.
