Now, let’s take a closer look at some betting angles for Wednesday’s World Cup qualifier:

Argentina v Brazil – Wednesday, 00:00 (UK Time)

  • Argentina top the group following their hard-fought 1-0 victory away to Uruguay in their last outing, a game which Lionel Messi missed due to a muscle strain, the Argentine hero is also unavailable for this one.
  • Lionel Scaloni’s side have given themselves some real breathing room at the top now, with a six point gap to Ecuador in second and a big seven point gap to rivals Brazil in third.
  • This fixture in recent years has favoured La Albiceleste, with the Argentines unbeaten in their last four meetings with Brazil, winning three of those.
    ——————————–
  • Following back-to-back draws back in November against Venezuela and Uruguay, Brazil put things right with a much-needed 2-1 victory against Colombia a few days ago, thanks to a 99th minute winner from Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior.
  • With five games left to play in this qualifying process, Dorival Júnior’s men should be confident of making the finals in 2026 given they are now eight points clear of Bolivia in seventh. 
  • Although two sides with great attacking threats, this is a fixture that doesn’t tend to produce many goals, with nine of the last ten games producing less than three goals.

Prediction: Argentina 1-0 Brazil, Under 1.5 goals.
