Argentina vs. Paraguay Live Stream, Preview, Predictions for FIFA World Cup 2018 Qualifiers As Lionel Messi Sits With Injury
Argentina and Paraguay face off in the World Cup Qualifiers 2018 on Tuesday.
Argentina blew a late 2-1 lead against Peru in a game that was crucial to the team's qualifying success. Despite winning the CONMEBOL qualifiers last cycle, the team sits in a three-way tie for third place and occupies the playoff spot thanks to goal differential.
Lionel Messi is not on the team at the moment, continuing to struggle with injury.
Paraguay sits four points behind Argentina for that final spot thanks to a decent campaign thus far. The team has three wins, three draws and three defeats to date, including a 1-0 loss to Colombia in its most recent contest.
The top four teams in the CONMEBOL standings automatically qualify for the World Cup tournament in 2018. The fifth place side has to contest a two-legged playoff with a team from the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC).
