Preview: Argentina vs Bolivia
Argentina, the reigning World Cup and Copa América champions, are currently leading the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers table and will host Bolivia in their next match. With 19 points from their first nine games, La Albiceleste have recorded six wins, one draw, and two losses so far in the campaign. Their most recent outing saw them travel to Venezuela, where they played to a 1-1 draw. The conditions on the pitch were far from ideal, with the game even delayed by 30 minutes due to poor weather. Despite dropping two points, coach Lionel Scaloni will be relieved that none of his players sustained injuries during the match.
Bolivia, on the other hand, are coming off a memorable win against Colombia, even though they played a man down for most of the game. This victory handed Colombia their first loss of the qualifiers and was a huge boost for Bolivia’s World Cup hopes. Sitting in sixth place with 12 points from their opening nine matches, Bolivia is in a strong position to qualify for the World Cup for the first time since 1994. The team will be looking to build on this momentum as they face one of South America's strongest sides in Argentina.
This upcoming match promises to be an exciting contest, with both teams eager to secure important points on their road to the 2026 World Cup.
