Argentina

Lionel Messi and his Argentina are on a wonderful run, off late. Argentina is currently placed 2nd on the standings. Having played 16 games the Albiceleste have won 11 matches while drawing the other 5 games. Argentina currently has a 13 point lead over 3rd placed Ecuador.

Lionel Scaloni’s team will play their penultimate fixture of the group stage while the last fixture against the Samba Boys is scheduled to be played in the summer. Last week Argentina exhibited a dominant display that saw Lionel Messi, Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Gonzalez finding the back of the net.

Argentina will be missing the likes of Mauro Icardi and Lautaro Martinez upfront while Alexis Mac Allister and Julian Alvarez are likely to compete for their places on the starting team. Goalie Emiliano Martinez would be missing and thus the old and faithful Franco Armani would be given the duty to guard the three sticks.
