Bolivia

WWLLDL

Bolivia will be looking for an improved result here following a 3-1 WC Qualifiers - South America defeat in their last game at the hands of Peru.

In that match, Bolivia managed 49% possession and 15 attempts on goal with 5 on target. On the other side, Peru had 12 shots on goal with 7 on target. Andy Polo (37'), Paolo Guerrero (45') and Edison Flores (82') scored for Peru.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times that Bolivia have kept a clean sheet. In fact, Bolivia have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, letting in 16 goals during that time.

Uruguay

DLDWDL

After a loss in their previous game against Argentina in WC Qualifiers - South America action, Uruguay will be hoping to turn things around here.

In that game, Uruguay had 55% possession and 6 attempts at goal with 2 on target. Argentina got 12 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. Thiago Almada (68') was the scorer for Argentina.

A succession of hard-working showings by the Uruguay defence has resulted in their ‘goals against’ tally amounting to 4 from their past 6 fixtures overall. In that period of time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 4. That kind of pattern might not be carried forward into this match, of course.

↔️ Head to head

A review of their prior head-to-head meetings stretching back to 10/10/2017 tells us that Bolivia have won 1 of these and Uruguay 5, with the number of draws being 0.

There were also plenty of goals scored in those games, 25 in total which averages out at 4.17 goals per meeting.

✨ Prediction

In our view, Uruguay will do well to hit the back of the net against this Bolivia lineup who we think will likely score one, at least.

We’ve gone for a very even contest with a 1-0 winning score for Bolivia after 90 minutes.

Looking forward to this.
