Argentina will take on Bolivia up next in the preparation for their World Cup defence in the qualifier on Tuesday at the Hernando Siles Stadium.
Since their 2022 World Cup group-stage loss to Saudi Arabia, Lionel Messi's team has been on an 11-game winning streak. As the reigning World Champions, they would be highly optimistic about title defense and will be confident of a big win over Bolivia. The hosts, on the other hand, have recorded just one win in their last 12 matches and will be hoping for a miracle against Messi and co.
