Preview:
Argentina is in flying form heading into the World Cup with an unbeaten streak of 36 matches across competitions.
A 5-0 away win over UAE in a pre-World Cup friendly match continued their imperious form with Di Maria (2), Alvarez, Messi and Correa finding the back of the net.
La Albiceleste are one of tournament favourites due to their combination of players, quality and potential. They are within touching distance of breaking Italy’s record, but getting the crown is the illusive dream.
On the other hand, Saudi Arabia head into the World Cup by finishing top in the AFC Qualifiers with 23 points from 10 matches.
This proved Saudi’s rise in the sport across Asia but will be severely tested against the might of the 2-time World Champs, Argentina.
Saudi has won only 2 of their previous 7 matches across competitions. But previous matches are out of the window when it’s time for the World Cup.
They need to be on the money from the 1st minute and be respectful, form a good shape to hold the Messi-led team.
Both teams last met in a friendly match in 2012 November where Saudi Arabia played out a goalless draw.

Argentina possible 11:
Martinez, Molina, Romero, Otamendi, Acuna, De Paul, Paredes, Allister, Messi, Martinez and Di Maria
Saudi Arabia possible 11:
Owais, Shahrani, Al-Boleahi, Amri, Abdulhamid, Malki, Kanno, Al-Dawsari, Al-Faraj, Al-Shehri and Al-Buraikan
Prediction: Argentina 2-0 Saudi Arabia
Argentina is too strong for the visiting Saudi side and this should be a straight forward start for them to the competition.
There is far too much quality in the La Albiceleste squad. Saudi can look to keep them down but conceding twice is bound to happen.
Players to watch out for: Di Maria, Paredes, Al-Buraikan and Al-Faraj.
