The excitement is building as several key matchups unfold in the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers today. Argentina, Uruguay, and Bolivia are all set to take the field, each with their own stakes in the race for the 2026 World Cup.

Argentina will host Colombia at 8:00 PM ET in Buenos Aires. The reigning champions have already secured their spot for next summer's tournament but are eager to maintain their winning momentum. They come into this match riding a four-game winning streak and have not lost at home in over 18 months. In their last outing, Julian Alvarez scored the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Chile. Fans are particularly excited to see Lionel Messi, who may return to the starting lineup after coming off the bench in a recent friendly against Chelsea.

Colombia, however, is in a precarious position. Currently sitting sixth in the standings, they are just three points ahead of seventh-place Venezuela. The pressure is mounting as Colombia has not won any of their last five matches and has not secured a road victory since July 2024. With pride on the line for Argentina and a desperate need for points for Colombia, this match promises to be intense.

Meanwhile, Uruguay will face Venezuela at 7:00 PM ET at Estadio Centenario. Uruguay is in a strong position, currently fifth in the standings with 21 points, tied with Colombia. They need to keep their momentum going to secure a top-six finish. Darwin Núñez of Liverpool is expected to lead Uruguay's attack, having scored five goals in 12 appearances for his national team. A win for Venezuela would bring them closer to the top six, making this matchup critical for both teams.

In another exciting clash, Bolivia will take on Chile at Municipal Villa Ingenio. Bolivia's chances of qualifying are slim, sitting in eighth place with just 14 points. They must secure maximum points in this match to keep their hopes alive. Miguel Terceros has been a standout player for Bolivia, scoring five goals, but the team needs more offensive support. Chile, currently in last place with only 10 points, is looking to play spoiler and prevent Bolivia from gaining ground.

Fans can catch all the action live on streaming platforms like Fubo and Fanatiz, with regional restrictions possibly applying. These matches are crucial as teams vie for a coveted spot in the 2026 World Cup, making today a must-watch for soccer enthusiasts.
