Prediction: 3-1
Bolivia
Argentina and Bolivia face each other in a David-vs-Goliath clash at Estadio Antonio Vespucino Liberti on Friday morning. La Albiceleste withdrew from the Superclasico as Premier League footballers Martinez, Buendia, Lo Celso, and Romero were not allowed to play due to covid-19 protocol. All four players are likely to miss the Bolivia game, but Lautaro Martinez and Leo Messi are likely to prove a handful for the opposition defenders.
La Verde, on the other hand, continue with their habit of producing much better showings at home than on the travels, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Argentina’s party in Buenos Aires. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Cruzeiro attacker Marcelo Moreno, who scored a brace in a 4-2 loss to Uruguay.
Highlighted Player (Lionel Messi):
Lionel Messi is regarded as one of the best players in the history of football. He was born on 24 June, 1987 in Rosario and he began his football career at Newell’s Old Boys. At age 10 he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency, but having realized his potential at a young age, Barcelona decided to pay for his treatment.
Messi joined Barca in 2001 and he has been playing for the Camp Nou outfit ever since. The Argentine magician has won eight La Liga trophies with Barca and he helped the Catalan giants lift no less than four Champions League titles (2005/2006, 2008/2009, 2010/2011, 2014/2015).
In the 2011/2012 La Liga campaign Messi scored 50 goals for Barca, while netting 14 goals in the 2011/2012 Champions League campaign. The five-time Golden Ball award winner has established himself as Barcelona’s all-time top scorer, but he has yet to win a trophy with Argentina national team at major tournaments. Leo Messi, though, has won Olympic Gold Medal (2008) and FIFA World Youth Championship (2005), with la Albiceleste.
Highlighted Team (Bolivia):
Bolivian Football Federation has been established in 1926 and it is one of the 10 member of South American Football Confederation. Managed by Julio César Baldivieso, La Verde have gone through difficult times since their second place finish at Copa America 1997.
Three-time World Cup participants have last appeared at the global stage in 1994 and they have never gone past the first round on any of the three tournaments, scoring only one goal at the tournament held in the USA. Bolivia took part in 24 Copa America tournaments since their debut in 1926 and the most prominent result was their 1963 title.
Luis Hector Cristaldo and Marco Sandy are the two players with most caps for Bolivia with their 93 international appearances, while Joaquin Botero’s name still stands at the top of the scoring charts with the former Bolivian international netting 20 during his time with the national team.
