In the context of the fifth round of the World Cup qualification tournament, a match between the national teams of Argentina and Uruguay will take place in Buenos Aires on the night of November 17. The game is scheduled to kick off at 01:00 Central European Time.

Argentina:

The Argentine national team began a new qualifying cycle as the reigning world champion and the current winner of the Copa America. Under the guidance of Lionel Scaloni, there is enough time to prepare for the title defense. There is no doubt that Argentina will successfully overcome the qualification, and a good start to the qualifiers is the key to success. The team did start well. Initially, the Argentinians narrowly defeated Ecuador, and then they easily handled the Bolivian national team. In the last match, Argentina achieved victory against the Paraguayan national team and also defeated Peru. It's worth noting that the team has not conceded any goals since the World Cup.

Uruguay:

This team is considered one of the main contenders to qualify for the World Cup. Uruguay is going through a generational shift, but even in such a young squad, the team is capable of achieving high results. Uruguay scored and conceded goals in the first three matches of the qualification cycle, and in the last game, they unexpectedly defeated Brazil with a score of 2-0. Currently, the Uruguayan national team is in second place with a five-point gap from Argentina.

Interesting facts about the match and the history of head-to-head encounters:

• Argentina has not conceded a goal in eight consecutive matches, and in all these games, the team emerged victorious.
• Uruguay has been scoring and conceding goals in four consecutive matches.
• Uruguay has not defeated Argentina since 2013.

Prediction:

The hosts will be favorites, but Uruguay showed in the last match that they can spring surprises. In any case, Argentina's defense looks excellent, so I predict that one of the teams will fail to score.
