Pre-match information

The 2026 World Cup qualifiers have returned to South America after Copa America's summer. Argentina - world and Copa America champions, will aim to maintain their No. 1 position in the rankings.

At the moment, La Albiceleste have 15 points in 6 matches, 2 points more than Urguay. In the most recent match in the qualifying round, Argentina beat Brazil in November last year.

That match started Argentina's run of 11 consecutive wins since losing to Uruguay. Of course, Lionel Messi has played in most of those matches, but when he returns to the next qualifying round against Chile, the 37-year-old captain will not be able to play due to injury.

Argentina also no longer has Angel di Maria when he retired from his international career after Copa America, but the home team is still rated higher than Chile, the team is also in a difficult period.

They have only won 1 match in this qualifying round, temporarily ranked 8th on the rankings with 5 points.

Only 6 teams have qualified directly for the 2026 World Cup and the 7th-placed team will play in the play-off. The opportunity is not over yet, but coach Ricardo Gareca's team will have to find a way to return as quickly as possible.

But how to get back when their away form in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers is very poor - losing 1-3 to Uruguay, 0-3 to Venezuela and 0-1 to Ecuador.

Last June, Chile lost 0-1 to Argentina in the Copa America group stage.
