It is with a feeling of revenge that Uruguay meets Colombia, on the night of Friday to Saturday, for a top-of-the-table shock in the AmSud zone of this qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup. A few months, the Tricolor had dominated the Celeste by signing a 1-0 success, thus making their ticket to the final of the Copa America.
But this meeting was above all marked by its violence, with an expulsion from each side. This remake between the second and third of this unique group therefore promises to be electric. Marcelo Bielsa has a response to give after the controversies over his management in recent months, following criticism from Luis Suarez. There is no Argentina or Brazil, but this South American clash will be worth the detour.
The expected compositions:
Uruguay : Ratchet; Nández, Bueno, Giménez, Olivera; Valverde, Ugarte; Pellistri, De Arrascaeta, Araujo; Núñez.
Colombia : Vargas; Arias, Sánchez, Lucumí, Mojica; Rios, Lerma, Arias; Rodríguez, Córdoba, Díaz.
Where to watch the match?
This match between Uruguay and Colombia counting for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers will be broadcast on DAZN.
