Betting tip and prediction for this match between Uruguay vs Venezuela
The best prediction for Uruguay vs Venezuela in the World Cup qualifiers is a victory for Uruguay. The Uruguayan squad is in solid form, currently holding fifth place and striving for direct qualification, while Venezuela, despite its recent improvements, lacks the consistency needed to overcome Uruguay, particularly when playing away. Uruguay’s strong defence and more effective attack should see them secure an important win to bolster their ambitions.

Match preview: Uruguay vs Venezuela
Uruguay and Venezuela will face off at the Centenario Stadium, in a match of the South American World Cup qualifiers (normal time). The record of recent direct confrontations favours the home side, which has won 1 and drawn 1 in their last 2 encounters. It’s important to take note of the home/away performance, as both teams show considerably different results depending on the venue.
Team analysis: Uruguay
After 5 wins, 6 draws, and 4 losses, the home side currently occupies 5th position, having accumulated 21 points. In their latest match, they faced a 2-0 defeat against Paraguay, after a previous 0-0 draw away to Bolivia. They are notably stronger on home soil, with their last 30 games yielding 4 wins, 7 draws, and 4 losses away, compared to 8 wins, 5 draws, and just 2 losses at home. Their recent World Cup qualifying home matches have resulted in 4 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. However, their attack has struggled recently, failing to score in 7 of their last 10 matches. In total, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have only come back to win once after doing so. Furthermore, of their last 14 home games across all competitions, 9 of their 25 goals came in the final 15 minutes.
Team analysis: Venezuela
The visiting team currently sits in 7th place, having garnered 15 points from 4 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses. In their penultimate match, they achieved a 1-0 victory against Peru at home, and their last outing saw them triumph 2-0 over Bolivia. They are considerably affected by home advantage, having a stronger record when playing in front of their fans, recording 4 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses in their last 30 away games, scoring 17 goals while conceding 22. However, at home, they have a record of 7 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses, with 15 goals scored and only 7 conceded. In their last 7 away matches in the World Cup qualifiers, Venezuela has drawn 2 and lost 5.
In this competition, they have lost their last 4 away games and have not won any of the last 7 played on the road. Their defence has not been particularly solid either, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 matches. Yet, their attack has been relatively consistent, scoring in 8 of those 10 matches. In 15 games within this competition, they have never managed to come back after conceding the first goal in 7 instances.
The Venezuela team has shown progress, now with 18 points and sitting in the seventh position. Following their important win against Bolivia, confidence has been boosted, bringing them closer to the direct qualification zone. Although they are behind teams like Uruguay and Brazil, Venezuela has demonstrated development, particularly in their attacking play, which has been a significant issue in recent years. Facing Uruguay will be critical, as a win could bring them significantly closer to qualification, while a defeat could push them further away from their dreams. This match represents a pivotal moment for their hopes.
