Analysis Russia

The home team plays its 7th friendly match of the year. In the previous friendly matches they registered the following final scores: Russia (1‑1) Iran, Russia (4‑2) South Korea, Russia (1‑1) Chile, Hungary (0‑3) Russia, Russia (3‑3) Belgium and Russia (0‑2) Ivory Coast. In the last 5 Friendlies home matches Russia has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 5 matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 5 of the last 6 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 5 of the last 6 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

The Russian team arrives at this match with a one goal draw against Iran, adding up to their third meeting without proving the taste of defeat: the only goal of the team was scored by Dimitri Poloz. Normally the coach Stanislav Cherchesov plays in 3-4-3, with possession of the ball and organized attacks, but in this match he must use a strategy based on counterattack: Kokorin is a very fast and excellent player in the ball transport for the attack. Apparently the coach should use a squad very similar to the last friendly.

Confirmed Lineup: Igor Akinfeev, Mário Fernandes, Konstantin Rausch, Fedor Kudryashov, Viktor Vasin, Georgiy Dzhikiya, Daler Kuzyaev, Denis Glushakov, Aleksandr Kokorin, Fedor Smolov, Dmitri Poloz.
Coach: V. Karpin.

Analysis Argentina

The away team plays its 3rd friendly match of the year. In the previous friendly matches they registered the following final scores: Singapore (0‑6) Argentina and Brazil (0‑1) Argentina. In their last match, for the WC Qualification South America, they got an away win against Ecuador by (1‑3). In the last 10 away matches Argentina has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Argentina comes for this match with a triumph over Ecuador, by 1-3, thus stamping the direct access to 2018 World Cup: all three goals were scored by Messi. In this preparation game the selector Jorge Sampaoli should play in 4-3-3 with Benedetto being the most offensive reference of the visiting team. In addition, Argentina must opt for a more offensive strategy since it presents great speed in attack. For this game the coach can not count on the injured Mercado and Acuña, players that usually appear in Argentina team.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Romero, Nicolás Otamendi, Germán Pezzella, Enzo Pérez, Giovani Lo Celso, Matías Kranevitter, Eduardo Salvio, Ángel Di María, Lionel Messi, Sergio Agüero.
Coach: J. Mascherano, L. Scaloni.
