Argentina - Uruguay: our prediction

Argentina is heavily favored (odds 1.16). In the last 10 games, they won 70% of the time, and 90% of the time when they were the favorite. Uruguay lost 50% of its recent matches. No information on major injuries is available to contradict this trend. Argentina's home win is the most likely scenario.

Recent form statistics suggest games often under the 162.5 point threshold. Argentina scores little in the 2nd half (30% of games >). Uruguay is also not very prolific in the 2nd period (40% >). In qualification matches, defense and intensity are often priorities. The odds for Under (1.69) are slightly more attractive than for Over (1.73), which corroborates the analysis. No external conditions (weather) are reported to favor a very offensive game.
