COL vs BOL Dream11
Columbia take on Bolivia at the Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez in a must-in game for La Tricolor. A seven-game winless run has seen Columbia drop four points behind the top five with just two games left to play. Colombia are still in contention for a fourth-place finish but, apart from winning the remaining two games of the campaign, they’ll also hope that Chile, Uruguay, and Peru also drop points.
Bolivia are 8th with 15 points. They can’t qualify directly for the Finals and can only hope to make it to Qatar via inter-conference play-offs. To do that, they need to secure a win here and also against Brazil next Tuesday, which might be a difficult task to accomplish.

GK
If Columbia hope to qualify for the playoffs, Ospina needs to rediscover some of that World cup form. He has managed to keep only 3 clean sheets from 16 games.
DEF
A threat from the right, Cuadrado will bring in a lot of experience into the side. His contributions in goal are also commendable with 2 assists and 1 goal in 15 games.
Enoumba has joined Bolivia for the current WC campaign and is looking solid on the right of a back three.
MID
Columbia will hope Diaz will bring his Liverpool experience into the mix and find the back of the net in this crucial game.
Sitting in the No.10 position, Arce has to produce some magic to help create some good chances in the game.
ST
Borja has great supply from either side and is touted to score against a shaky Bolivian defence.
The veteran striker will fancy his chances after scoring in the 2-3 loss against Chile.
Goalkeeper: D. Ospina
Defenders: M. Enoumba, Juan Cuadrado, D. Sanchez, J. Carrasco
Midfielders: L. Diaz, J. Rodriguez, J. Arce, M. Villaroel
