Bolivia vs Uruguay Prediction

Bolivia are perennial strugglers in South American qualification for the FIFA World Cup but a combination of their home advantage in La Paz as well as the expansion of the tournament has seen their chances of making the global stage once again improve.

The Bolivians have managed four victories in their 13 matches so far in this campaign, albeit they have remained comfortably the worst team defensively, conceding 30 goals. Their most recent outing saw them lose 3-1 to Peru at Estadio Nacional da Lima the other day with Miguel Terceros scoring a 58th minute penalty for the Bolivians in that game at 2-0 down.

Uruguay, on the other hand, had a slim chance of guaranteeing 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification in this international break but those celebrations will have to be delayed after they suffered a 1-0 loss to the all-conquering Argentinians in Montevideo the other day with Thiago Almada notching a second-half winner for the world and double South American champions.

Bolivia’s home advantage of playing in La Paz is well documented and presents issues for any side so a low-scoring affair is to be expected, even if Uruguay should still get over the line with their high energy style of football potentially mitigating against a normal dip in energy.
