Argentina and Guatemala already meet in Washington

Those led by Lionel Scaloni have just beaten Ecuador 1-0, in a very disputed match that was not at all friendly.

Guatemala, for its part, has just beaten the British Virgin Islands 3-0 in the second round of the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

Scaloni’s idea for this match is to give minutes to those who were not against Ecuador. This would mean the return to the starting eleven of defenders Nicolás Tagliafico, Nicolás Otamendi and Nahuel Molina, midfielders Alexis Mac Allister and Enzo Fernández, and star Lionel Messi, among others. Nor should we rule out a possible entry of Exequiel Palacios in place of Rodrigo De Paul.

Those led by Lionel Scaloni will face Guatemala from 9 p.m. at FedEx Field in Washington.
