From the hand of Raphinha, Brazil will seek to round out this irregular 2024 with a convincing closing in the South American Qualifiers, nothing less than in a classic with the intense and complicated Uruguay of Marcelo Bielsa. It is a great game, the best proposal of the 12th date on the way to the 2026 World Cup, a day that includes the duel Argentina-Peru, in La Bombonera.
If Brazil (17 points) wins the clash that will start at 1:45 a.m. on Spanish Wednesday, they will surpass Uruguay (19) and could even be second in the table if Colombia (19) does not obtain a victory against Ecuador (16).

The one of Marcelo Bielsa It is hypercompetitive and its latest precedent is a triumph against Colombia.

The worst game of the ‘Scaloni era’
Argentina (22) wants to recover from its fall in Paraguay, one of the worst games of the ‘Scaloni Era’, with weaknesses in defense and without ideas in attack. From 1:00 in the morning on Spanish Wednesday, they will seek to return against Peru (7), in the Bombonera.
The home field and the more than weak current situation of the rival represent a good opportunity for the reunion of the world champion, who suffered two out due to injuries (Nahuel Molina and Cristian Romero) which are added to the previous three (Lisandro Martínez, Germán Pezzella and Nicolás González). Will a Peru that only won one game, that does not offer individual lights and that is second to last cause complications?
