Argentine star Lionel Messi was included at the top of the list by the Argentine coach Lionel Scaloni. However, Messi may not participate as a starter in that match due to a recent muscle injury he has been suffering from with his club, Inter Miami of the United States. Therefore, the expected lineup for the Tango dancers is as follows:
Goalkeeper: Emiliano Martínez.
Defensive line: Otamendi, Tagliafico, Nahuel Molina, Romero.
Midfield: Mac Allister, De Paul, Enzo Fernández.
Forward line: Julián Álvarez, González, Gaich.
Argentina has managed to collect 6 points after playing two matches in the qualifiers, while the Paraguay national team ranks sixth with only one point after a draw and a loss in their previous matches.
