Uruguay didn't have hard time knocking Bolivia with 3 goals without receiving any. They moved quickly to the second spot after inflicting 2 defeats to the other top teams Brazil and Argentina. Nice performance and results out there for Uruguay players. I don't think Argentina should worry a lot comparing to Brazil which are 6th right now

Brazil 0 - 1 Argentina. That would be a normal result if the match wasn't played in Maracana.. I read that it is only the second time in history that Brazil lost in this stadium and both in front of Argentina. The previous defeat was almost a century ago? Sad moments there..

Uruguay haven’t just only grown points and move up the log but also confidence, it sits well when a team gets victory in consecutive fixtures that boosts their confidence going into the next match and while checking out the logs, Argentina who sits pretty top might have Brazil to worry about with Uruguay coming so fast behind, Uruguay heads to play Bolivia, an encounter I know Uruguay will come out top.

 All eyes will be fixed on the Brazil vs Argentina because results from the fixture will make the log look so good and open counterparts, Colombia and Venezuela who also won their matches are making the group one that’s eye catchy and it’ll be fun to watch South American football because as they say that’s where football is made.

Uruguay vs Bolivia
The World Cup Qualifier match Uruguay vs Bolivia match has started. The first half ended with Uruguay leading 2-0. The 1st goal was scored in the 15th minute by D. Núñez, and the 2nd goal was scored by G. Villamil in the 39th minute. Possession and Passes are much better than Bolivia in Uruguay. Today it seems that Uruguay will score more goals in the second half. For example, Brazil gave 5 goals to Bolivia. Let's see what the end result is. But today Uruguay will win easily. If Uruguay wins today's match, it will go up to number one in the points table. On the other hand, to retain the top spot in the points table, Argentina needs to win against Brazil today.

I think Argentina gonna win this match even though Brazil are playing home in the Maracana stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Odds in bookies are quite close to each other but there is an advantage for Argentinians. Brazil around 2.5 and Argentina around 2.9.
Plus 1.5 goal at 1.5. Both teams to score around 2.1. You have the feeling that bookies think Brazil couldn't score or what?
This match should be important for Brazil to return to the first places and to close the gap with Argentina.

Argentina team has all the players but Brazil team lacks good players.  The star of the Brazilian team, Neymar, is injured, so the Brazilian team is very weak. So I do everything I am willing to bet for the Argentina team. Because Argentina you are very good and experienced they will try hard enough to go. Because Argentina team has more points in the points table, so definitely Argentina team can win this match. Because Lionel Messi he will try to win his whole performance team.

An interesting match of the World Cup qualifiers will be between Brazil and Argentina. Brazil is a strong team but not in good form this year. Brazil has played a total of 5 matches in the World Cup qualifiers, Brazil has won only 2 matches and drawn 1 match. Brazil is 5th in the points table with 7 points. Argentina are in great form at the moment, winning every match since the World Cup but losing their last match with Uruguay. Argentina is the top 1 in the points table. A Brazil vs Argentina match is always exciting. I am ready to enjoy the exciting match on 22nd November. It will be very difficult for Brazil to win against a strong Argentina team. Which team do you think will win the Brazil vs Argentina exciting match?

I don't know what's most unexpected. Brazil successive failures or Argentina defeat at home against Uruguay!
Brazil are now 5th in the ranking after losing vs Colombia and Uruguay and the draw against Venezuela. Their results are unacceptable at all! Worst they will face Argentina. I know Argentina lost surprisingly vs Uruguay but they will rebound back for sure. After all, Uruguay isn't a bad team, they have good players and they were precise in Argentina match, shots in the target equal a goal.

I never expected the Argentina team to give such a performance to the audience today. Because I had bet for Argentina and I faced loss because every player in Argentina team is experienced and world cup winning player. But Argentina's audience never thought of such a performance with Uruguay. Because their team lost 2-0 despite having Lionel Messi. Despite repeated attacks by the Argentine team, they could not succeed in any way. In total Argentina had 12 shots on goal and Uruguay had 6 shots on goal. But in between, Uruguay managed to shoot two shots, but the Argentine team did not succeed in any way, because the Uruguayan defense was strong.

Yes, it is true what you said that Uruguay won the match with score of 0 - 2 and this was a great victory for Uruguay because after successfully beating Brazil they have now also beaten Argentina.
These two matches gave them full points and provided very good momentum because they immediately rose to second place more quickly, but this victory cannot replace Argentina at the top of the standings with 12 points and Uruguay with 10 points.
In the next match, Argentina will meet Brazil and Uruguay will meet Bolivia, making it possible for Uruguay to win the match again.
Argentina may be little stressed because they are playing against Brazil, which is quite strong team.
If Argentina loses or draws and Uruguay wins the match by landslide then they will automatically top the standings.

Colombia and Venezuela also performed quite well so the competition might be little more interesting in the future to be able to have secure position as determinant of who is eligible to qualify to participate in the 2026 World Cup.

Argentina vs Uruguay
2026 World Cup Qualifier match Argentina vs Uruguay. Already the first half game is over and the second half game has started. Uruguay scored 1 goal in 41 minutes. Argentina was playing 4 matches of the World Cup qualifiers and is number 1 in the points table after winning all 4 matches. If Argentina lose today, they will lose the top spot in the points table. Uruguay put on a great performance to defeat a strong team, Brazil. Today it seems that Uruguay will win, if Uruguay wins, it will go to the top of the points table. 70 minutes of playing is over and there are 20 minutes, will Argentina finally lose to Uruguay today?

One of the factors in Argentina's success in winning the 2022 World Cup is because of the important role of Lionel Messi. Messi created many assists and goals which influenced Argentina's overall performance. Moreover, having Messi by your side will increase the mental and self-confidence of young players. And in the 2026 World Cup, perhaps Messi will not be able to make the contribution he is now.

I think almost everyone expected this kind of performance from Argentina. After all, they are the defending champions of the World Cup. So it was easy to predict that they were going to win this match. I actually think that Argentina is going to play the final of the World Cup again.

The performance of Brazil has been really bad in recent times in the World Cup. Yes, in this match, Brazil was the favourite to win. But they failed. For some reason, I am starting to think that the Brazil team is generally overrated in recent times.

Argentina secured a 2-0 win over Peru thanks to a great performance by Lionel Messi. Argentina have won all four of the first four matches of the World Cup qualifiers. The former World Cup winning team is at the top of the points table with 12 points. 

In another match of the day, Brazil lost 2-0 to Uruguay. Brazil were favorites against Uruguay but they couldn't prove themselves as favorites on the field due to which they were defeated in this match. Brazil lost 3 points after losing against Uruguay and now they are at number three in the points table. Neymar suffered a major injury in this match against Uruguay and was seen walking off the field on a stretcher.

Argentina won as expected with 2 goals to 0 vs Peru in an away game. The other games results weren't that special until you come in front of Brazil one and see them losing their match by 2-0! Uruguay is a good team ok we know that but Brazilian players and coach should stop shaming themselves! They will play in November vs Colombia then Argentina which isn't promising with their actual form..

World Cup Qualifying Match Argentina vs Peru. Between Argentina and Peru In the last 5 head-to-head matches, Argentina won 3 matches and drew 2 matches. Between Argentina and Peru, Argentina is stronger. Argentina played 3 qualifying matches and won 3 matches. Peru played 3 matches lost 2 matches and drew 1 match. Argentina is number 1 in the points table and Peru is number 9. According to past statistics, Argentina are ahead to win today's match. If I had to make a prediction, I would definitely pick Argentina. Argentina's chances of winning today are very high. The game has already started let's see what happens in the end.

Unfortunately, since UEFA EURO Qualifiers has a dedicated thread, which already figure in the first post, then posts related to this competition should be posted there. This topic is dedicated for competitions where there is no dedicated topics for it.

[CONMEBOL]
Venezuela 3 - 0 Chile, that was an unexpected result. Venezuela made many surprising result. They won vs Paraguay, then got a draw with Brazil and today they embarrassed Chile badly! They are temporarily sitting in the third place which is quite good for a team like them.
Right now Paraguay 0 - 0 Bolivia after almost 30 minutes of the game.

In my opinion it will not be an easy game, because Belgium is already qualified for Euro 2024, even if we see odds of 1.67 in favor of Belgium in this game, I still see this low odds as a big trap, unless this odds would remain the same even when they release the starting 11 and they are the same starting 11 as in previous games, that is, the 11 best players in Belgium are playing. something that I highly doubt will happen, I see a scenario in which the Belgium coach will rotate the players, he will probably remove Lukaku and other good players to avoid unnecessary injuries and also give opportunities to other players who haven't been able to play very often

Belgium is already qualified, so they will not play with much motivation to win, for them this will be a friendly game and the players will save themselves to avoid injuries and not play for their clubs, while on the other side we have Sweden who they are very desperate and need a victory, so they will do everything they can to come out of this game with a victory or a draw, but in my opinion if Belgium rotates their players then at most Sweden will get a draw, but I highly doubt that Belgium will play with their best players and I also highly doubt that Sweden will qualify for Euro 2024.

sweden made mistakes and these mistakes cost them not qualifying for the euro, looking at sweden's performance in the game against belgium, we can see that clearly they are strong, they played against strong belgium and even so they have a chance of winning the euro game, that's why I see Austria winning today's game against Azerbaijan who no longer have any chance of qualifying, and I highly doubt they can beat Austria. so for me belgium and autria are the two teams that qualify in this group

Belgium vs Sweden, I'd expect Belgium to win with relative ease. Sweden do pose a threat but it should be manageable for Belgium. I expect it to be a goalscoring affair with Belgium scoring thrice and Sweden once. Belgium have Lukaku and Doku who are in form while Sweden have Kulusevski and Gyokeres who are doing well for their respective teams.

The problem with the Brazil team is that the national team is just not balanced at all. They have all the wingers in the world on the team. But they have very limited strikers, midfielders, and also defensive players. I am not saying they don't have players for those positions. They definitely have players, but those players are not really good, to be honest. And if a player from the midfield or defense gets injured, they cannot replace him with a player who will be able to give the same level of service to the team. I think the next World Cup is going to be the last for Neymar though.

Yeah I agree with you and I find it interesting to bet on goals rather than the team who could win since sometimes it is quite random and coaches might give a chance to many second-line players. I find that almost all games ended with a goal at least.

[CONMEBOL]
CONMEBOL matches will continue this week in Tuesday and Wednesday.
Uruguay - Brazil and Peru - Argentina are the best. I am afraid Argentina will make the gap bigger with Brazil by the end of the round.
