Venezuela vs Argentina Prediction
By now, facing pressure must be the norm for the Argentine players. Every time they line up for a game, the players face intense scrutiny from world media as well as home fans.
They need this win, and the squad could thank their lucky stars, that they avoided facing tough customer Chile so early in the tournament, which group champions, Colombia, will be doing.
Venezuela will not be a walk in the park though. They have transformed themselves into a good defensive unit, and even the mighty Brazilians failed to score against them. Moreover, the former also has the confidence of the 3-1 win just months back against this same opponent.
