As part of the next match of qualification for the 2022 World Cup, the players of the national teams of Venezuela and Uruguay will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation?
Venezuela
The players of the national team of Venezuela have three points in their piggy bank after five rounds, which allow this team to be located in ninth place in the standings, losing four points to the passing fifth place. It is worth noting that the "maroon" in the current qualification did not start in the best way, losing three matches at once. The Venezuelans were waiting for a fiasco in the meetings with Colombia (0: 3), Brazil (0:1) and Paraguay (0:1). After that, however, the Venezuelans were able to get the first points in the selection, defeating Chile (2: 1), but in the match of the fifth round they lost to Bolivia (1:3).
Uruguay
As for the national team of Uruguay, it was able to score seven points in this qualifying cycle after five rounds, with which it is located in fifth place in the standings. By the way, this place gives the Uruguayans a chance to play in the intercontinental playoffs. In this qualification, "charrua" alternated between wins and losses from the first matches. So, the Uruguayans had to start with a home victory over Chile (2: 1), which was replaced by a defeat by Ecuador (2:4). Next, the Sky Blues were able to beat Colombia (3: 0), and then on their own territory, the Uruguayans were outplayed by Brazil (0:2). And a few days ago, the Uruguayans shared points in a scandalous meeting with Paraguay on their own field, where the referees did not count the "clean" goal of the hosts, referring to the VAR system.
Statistics and figures:
- Uruguay-the favorite of the game;
- Venezuela lost 4 of the previous 5 matches;
- Uruguay has a 2-match unbeaten streak;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the opponents ended in a draw - 0: 0;
- In the matches between these teams in the last 4 games, the bet "both will score - no" was held.
Forecast
In the upcoming meeting, we are unlikely to see much performance. Most likely, the opponents will not be able to break even the basic total. I think that the opponents will not be able to send three goals in this match to each other's goal.
