ARG vs URU Dream11 Prediction: Argentina and Uruguay square off in Copa America action on Saturday, in a clash between the two favourites to qualify out of group B. Argentina kicked off their campaign with a slightly disappointing 1-1 draw with Chile, while their opponents are yet to play, and will look to begin with what would be a huge win. Uruguay come into this game on the back of consecutive goalless draws in World Cup Qualifying games at the beginning of June.
Argentina came away from their clash with Chile slightly disappointed, having been held to a draw in the opening game. Lionel Messi put his side ahead with an eye-catching free kick after 33 minutes, but La Albiceleste squandered several chances to double their lead, and they would go on to rue those missed chances when Chile drew level on the hour mark. Meanwhile, Uruguay will firmly focus their attention on the Copa America, as they look to lift the continental trophy for the 16th time, having not triumphed since 2011.
Date: 19 June, Saturday Time: 5:30 AM (IST) Venue: Estadio Nacional de Brasilia, Brasilia

Argentina had to rely on the brilliance of their talisman and captain Lionel Messi against Chile. The talent within the squad is obvious, but more is expected from the likes of Lautaro Martinez and Nicolas Tagliafico. Uruguay, on the other hand, have two superstars of their own in Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani. Oscar Tabarez’s side will be keen to get back to winning ways after some poor recent performances. In our ARG vs URU Today Match Prediction odds, we back for a 2-2 win for Argentina in this match.
