“La Celeste” had to prove her skills in front of a local backdrop against Ecuador on the last qualifying day and went into this pairing as a slight favourite tip. The first round was rather poor in terms of opportunities. Both teams more or less neutralised and so much of the game shifted to midfield. There was now very little going on in front of the penitentiary. In the first round, both teams did not manage to bring the ball to the opponent’s goal once. As a result, there was no goal in the break. Even after the change of sides, the fans were not offered any soccer treats. Both teams met on an equal footing and struggled, especially in the final. When everything already indicated a goalless draw, the home team managed to score a 1-0 victory through Gastón Pereiro’s so-called Lucky Punch. This result also reflected the final score.
For five qualifying matches, the team of coach Tabarez is undefeated. Two wins and three draws before that. With a total of four victories, three draws and two defeats, 15 points were scored in the current season. This yield currently ranks third in the table. The offensive looks at 13 goals scored and the defense have conceded ten goals on the other side. The gap to the leader from Brazil is nine points. For the second place in the table from Argentina, on the other hand, only three points are missing. It should be mentioned that the “Selecao” and the “Gauchos” have played one less game. With four goals, Luis Suarez is the best attacker in his own ranks.
However, the odds clearly show that the Urus are expected to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Although the first two places will probably go to Argentina and Brazil.
The two-time world champion (1930, 1950) was last represented four times in a row at a World Championship final round. At the last World Cup 2018 in Russia, the team retired after a 0-2 defeat to France in the quarter-finals.

The Colombians received the Chileans in the course of the World Cup qualification. Already in the early stages of the match, the home team turned into a favourite tip and only needed 19 minutes to get in front of the pack through Miguel Angel Borja. With the 1:0 in the back, the hosts quickly built up pressure and only needed one minute to get to the 2:0 again through Miguel Angel Borja. Of the Chileans, very little was to be seen in the first round in terms of the danger of scoring. Consequently, it went into the half-time break with a 2-0 lead. The visitors got a much better start after the side change and came after eleven minutes through Jean Meneses to the 1:2 consecutive goal. Now the guests increased the number of beats and built up some considerable pressure. The home team, for their part, lurked in wait for counterattacks and were rewarded with a 3-1 victory by Luis Diaz in the 74th minute. Further hits were no longer possible.
Just like the Urus, the “Cafeteros” have been undefeated for five World Cup qualifying games. Two wins and three draws were won. With a total of three wins, four draws and two losses, 13 points were scored in the current season. This yield gives the Colombians fifth place in the standings. The offensive scored 6 goals and on the other hand the defense was given as many goals as they had conceded.
The odds make it clear that Colombia does indeed have a claim to a place in the final round of the World Cup. The first four teams qualify directly and the fifth of the table makes the detour via the play-offs.
Colombia has participated in five World Championship finals so far. The biggest success so far has been the entry into the quarter-finals at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. There, the eleven lost to the host. The last World Cup 2018 led to the sixteen final. In this game, the team was eliminated by England.

At home, Suarez and Co. should not be underestimated. After all, three of the four qualifying wins came from home. Furthermore, a draw and a defeat were won at home. The Colombians, on the other hand, won only one of five long-distance matches. In addition, the points were divided three times and a defeat continued to be accepted. The “Cafeteros” have competed in Uruguay seven times. Only one victory came out of it. On the other hand, Uruguay prevailed five times. A further time the points should be divided after a 2:2 draw.
However, this time the search for a favorite tip runs into the void. In the course of our prognosis, however, it is advisable to bet on goals. Uruguay has scored seven times in five qualifying games at home and Colombia has scored eight goals in five long-distance matches. It is therefore advisable to bet on the market “meet both teams”.
