The match between Bolivia and Uruguay is generating considerable interest among football enthusiasts, particularly in the context of World Cup qualifiers. Bolivia, known for its challenging home advantage due to high altitude, will host Uruguay, a team with a storied history in international competitions. This dynamic sets the stage for an intriguing encounter that could have significant implications for both teams’ standings in the qualifying rounds.
Bolivia will look to make the most of their high-altitude home advantage and trip Uruguay when the sides meet in a matchday 14 meeting of the CONMEBOL 2026 World Cup qualifiers. This match at Municipal Stadium El Alto on Tuesday comes with our prediction of over 2.5 goals. The hosting La Verde are seventh with 13 points, while the visiting La Celeste are fourth with 20 points.
Bolivia are in the inter-confederation play-offs but are just a point above Venezuela. They lost 3-1 away at Peru last week, which was their third defeat in four matches, while the other was a draw.
It’s a completely different scenario at home, as Bolivia won three of their last four home World Cup qualifiers. That puts Uruguay in a tight spot, as they were also beaten 3-0 in their last visit to Bolivia.
Bolivia possible starting lineup: Viscarra; Medina, Haquin, Morales, Sagredo; Villamil, Robson Matheus, R Vaca; Miguelito, Algaranaz, Fernandez
Uruguay possible starting lineup: Rochet; Varela, R Araujo, Gimenez, Olivera; Valverde, Bentancur, Nandez; B Rodriguez, Nunez, M Araujo
Uruguay lost 1-0 at home to Argentina in their last game, with Marcelo Bielsa's team having 55% possession and two shots on target in the World Cup qualifier at Estadio Centenario.
Uruguay trashed Bolivia 5-0 in the teams last H2H meeting. This was a 2024 Copa America game at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. In the past five head-to-head encounters, we have seen four Uruguay wins and one Bolivia victory.
Uruguay, with a favorable record, will look to beat Bolivia and earn three points. The match, key to their qualification hopes, will be played at the Estadio Centenario, a venue that has historically been a stronghold for La Celeste. While Bolivia has proven to be a tough opponent, especially at the altitude of La Paz, Uruguay relies on its collective play and the defensive solidity that has characterized it under the current coaching staff. The Uruguayan fans are hoping for a resounding victory that will allow them to climb the table and consolidate their path to the next World Cup. An offensive tactic is anticipated, seeking to wear down the Bolivian defense and take advantage of the opportunities that arise in front of goal. The experience of key players will be essential to maintaining calm and controlling the pace of the match, avoiding falling into despair if the goal is delayed.
