Preview
Argentina continued their brilliant run with a 2-1 away win over Chile in their last match.
Di Maria and Martinez found the net for the La Albiceleste and continued the good form as they remain 2nd in the table with 32 points.
They are targeting their 10th win of the campaign and are unbeaten in their last 18 home games.
On the other hand, Colombia lost their last match 1-0 at home to Peru on Friday.
Flores scored five minutes from time to inflict a 4th defeat of the campaign, leaving Colombia in 6th place.
Having won just 1 of their last 5 matches, Colombia is desperate to prove their credentials and gain consistency.
With 17 points from 15 matches, Colombia still has the chance to reach the top 4 but cannot afford more dropped points under any situation.
These two sides last met in the Copa America semi-final stage, where Argentina won 3-2 on penalties after it finished 1-1 in regulation time.

Argentina is on their merry way and it doesn’t seem to step given their relentless unbeaten run of 28 matches.
Colombia’s inconsistent run does not give them much of a chance and we expect an easy home win for the hosts.
