Argentina
Starting with Argentina, making real history 18 months ago as they were crowned world champions for the first time since 1986, the South American icons find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Last seen during March’s international break storming their way to a 3-1 victory against Costa Rica, Lionel Scaloni’s men have only continued to shine since their World Cup success in the winter of 2022. In fact, along with collecting 15 points from their opening six World Cup qualifying appearances last year, Argentina have won 17 of their previous 17 matchups across all competitions. Signing off 2023 with a stellar 1-0 victory against arch-rivals Brazil, Scaloni’s camp will be looking to make another statement here.
