Argentina have started in a perfect way their way to the next World Cup as they have secured a pair of victories. The main question mark is posed around Lionel Messi’s presence in the lineup considering he is just returning from injury. Despite his absence in their latest matchup, he scored the winning goal in the only match he has played thus far.

Paraguay have not been a very good team in the last few tournaments, so they must take advantage of the new format to grant a spot as six participants qualify directly. However, their beginning has been disappointing in the results they managed to achieve. Having just one point means they could be far behind if they don’t commence winning.
