Qualifying leaders Argentina will look to extend their unbeaten run when they host seventh-placed Venezuela in Buenos Aires. This is the penultimate match in the CONMEBOL 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign.
Argentina have long since wrapped up their spot in the 2026 World Cup and leadTheir 35 points earned sees them holding a 10-point lead over second-place Ecuador.
Argentina snatched a 1-1 draw at home against Colombia, scoring the equalizer in the final 10 minutes despite being reduced to 10 men. That result put an end to a four-game winning streak, but extended their overall unbeaten run to five games.
The defending world champions are the highest-scoring team in the region with 28 goals in 16 matches played. Argentina has found the net in their last 21 straight games across all competitions.
Venezuela face a mammoth task that would require beating both Argentina and Colombia if they are to secure automatic qualification to the World Cup via a top six finish. More realistically, La Vinotinto will have to match or better Bolivia’s results in these last two games to qualify for the inter-confederation playoff.
The visitors fell to a 2-0 away defeat to Uruguay back in June but they’ve been in solid form overall. Prior to that loss, Venezuela had won two matches in a row, both of which were at home.

Our Argentina vs Venezuela Prediction
Despite not having anything to play for, we’re not expecting to see a drop-off in the quality of Argentina’s play. The hosts have been dominant at home and should be able to extend their record in relatively easy fashion.
Venezuela will have to pull off a historic win on Thursday if they are to keep their top-six hopes alive. Manager Fernando Batista likely won’t be expecting to get anything from this match. It’s their meeting with Colombia in Barranquilla three days later that will be the basket containing all of Venezuela’s eggs.
