Argentina returns to 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying action to play host to Bolivia at the iconic Estadio Mâs Monumental.
Lionel Scaloni's team were held to a 1–1 draw last time out against Venezuela to begin the October international break. Nicolás Otamendi opened the scoring via a close-range strike following a set piece while José Salomon Rondon equalized in the second half with a thumping header.
Neither side were able to generate much going forward as Lionel Messi explained that Argentina "could not complete two passes in a row" due to the waterlogged pitch at the Estadio Monumental de Maturín.
Now, La Albiceleste returns to Buenos Aires to play in front of its supporters after a two-match winless run away from home in World Cup qualifying play. Scaloni is likely to be without players like Paulo Dybala, Nicolás Gonzalez and Marcos Acuña for the contest but Argentina has more than enough quality to get the job done and stay atop the CONBEMOL qualifying standings.
