Regardless of who has been in charge, Colombia’s recent home performances in the World Championship 2026 have been dismal, suffering an alarming 15 defeats. This is likely encouraging news for Argentina, who have won four of their last five away games at this level, showing strong form on the road.
Low-scoring encounters have been the norm for Colombia at home, with 19 of their last 20 World Championship 2026 matches, including the last 10 in a row, featuring under 3.5 goals. Similarly, 18 of Argentina’s last 20 away games in this competition have also produced no more than three goals.
Colombia’s home matches this season have consistently seen both teams find the back of the net, including a previous draw with Argentina. The visiting team has also had a tendency to both score and concede in their recent games, with five consecutive away matches involving goals at both ends.
Argentina has been in excellent form, accumulating many points from a possible 27, with all nine of their matches during this period featuring three or fewer goals. Given that Colombia’s last nine home games have followed the same pattern, it would be surprising if this key match didn’t result in under 3.5 goals.
Prediction: Colombia 1-1 Argentina
