Prediction: 0-1
Argentina
All eyes will be on Arena Pernambuco when Brazil and Argentina square off against each other in El Clasico on Sunday evening. Both teams are vying for top position in the South America WC qualifying group, but there can be only one. The Selecao defeated Chile thanks to Everton Ribeiro’s goal despite the fact that several first-team regulars missed the match.
Since all Ederson, Alisson, Richarlison, Gabriel Jesus, Fred, Fabinho, Douglas Luiz, Renan Lodi, and Thiago Silva are out of contention for the hosts, we are not tempted to put our money on the Selecao. Leo Messi and Co, on the other hand, recorded a routine 3-1 win over ten-man Venezuela, and seeing that Lionel Scaloni can count on key players for Sunday’s derby, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors. Kun Aguero remains on the sidelines through injury.

Renowned for their attacking powers and defensive discipline Argentina have been playing their international matches since 1901 and their first ever competitive victory over Uruguay 3-2.
