Argentina vs Zambia

Argentina continue their preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a clash against Zambia.

The reigning world champions have been almost unstoppable lately, easing past their opponents in recent matches. They should be too strong for the Zambians, who have been below their best.

Argentina News

Argentina head into this clash off the back of a 2-1 victory over Mauritania in their previous friendly. They raced to a two-goal lead in the first half and were able to see out the win despite conceding after the break.

That was the second straight win over an African side following the 2-0 victory over Tunisia back in November. Lionel Scaloni's team are now unbeaten in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions, picking up eight wins in this run.

Argentina have earned some one-sided results lately, like the 6-0 victory over Puerto Rico and the 4-1 triumph over Brazil. There have also been over 1.5 first-half goals in two of their last three matches.

Zambia Form

Zambia have never been to the World Cup and failed to qualify for this year's edition, which is being held in North America. Their last competitive game was at the AFCON, where they lost 3-0 to Morocco in a group stage clash.

That result is part of a recent poor run for Zambia, who are winless in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions. Moses Sichone's team have suffered six defeats in this run.

While there have been some heavy defeats like the one against Morocco, Zambia have also lacked the cutting edge in attack. Chipolopolo have failed to score in three of their last four matches across all competitions.

Head to Head

There are no previous matches between Argentina and Zambia.

Verdict

Argentina v Zambia

Zambia are struggling at the moment and should be no match for the reigning world champions. Argentina have been in good form lately, and should earn a dominant win in this one.

Argentina have won by three or more goals in matches against Brazil and Puerto Rico and could be set for a repeat here. With two of their last three matches producing over 1.5 first-half goals, a similar pattern could be considered.
