On Friday, starting at 20:00, Argentina-Venezuela will be disputed from an international amateur scheduled in Madrid, Spain.
The last two direct confrontations in the World Championship preliminaries of 2018 ended with draws, scores 1-1 and 2-2.
Lionel Scaloni took over Argentinian national team after Jorje Sampaoli was shot and impressed with the defensive team. The Argentinians have received a single goal from Brazil under the leadership of the Scaloni-Aimar-Samuel-Ayala technical staff, all of whom have a great experience at the national level. The batch announced for friends with Venezuela and Morocco, abounds with new names, and the only stars summoned are Lionel Messi, Paulo Dybala and Angel Di Maria.
Venezuela remains the same defensive representative, dependent on Salomon Rondon’s striker, the Newcastle striker. The Venezuelans drew a score of 1-1 in the last disputed amateurs in the company of Iran and Japan at the end of 2018. Until the matches with Peru, Brazil and Bolivia in Copa America, the selection prepared by Rafael Dudamel will play a series of tests friendly against Argentina, Catalonia, and Mexico.
We do not think it will be a very attractive duel, in which the Argentinians will not force too much. A 1-2 goals difference is enough for their morale, and Venezuela will have few chances to score.
PREDICTION: Over 2,5 goals @ 1,68
