THE PREDICTION
Uruguay’s tough fixture run continues with a trip to table-toppers Brazil, and head coach Oscar Tabarez will certainly be hoping for a better performance than that which saw them surrender rather meekly to Argentina over the weekend. They remain in the qualification places but defeat here would leave them in a less-than-ideal position heading into the November round of games. Hosts Brazil recently dropped their first points of COMBEBOL qualifying when they were frustrated by Colombia and it’s fair to say they are not at the top of their game right now after leaving it late to defeat bottom-of-the-table Venezuela in the match prior to that. Their record at home is stellar though, with their last nine qualifying games on home turf having been won without conceding, while they have not lost a World Cup qualification game at home this century. With those undeniably compelling statistics in mind, they are likely to return to winning ways here.
