Cesar Farias's men were ongoing with a 3-1 defeat to Paraguay, as a result which will be somewhat unsatisfactory considering how the game played out. Despite their rivals controlling for the majority of the encounter, Bolivia took an early lead through an Erwin Saavedra penalty, and they held on until past the hour mark notwithstanding a red card shown on the stroke of halftime to forward Jaume Cuellar.

Eventually, the 10 men were no longer able to resist the pressure, as Alejandro Romero equalized in the 62nd minute and Angel Romero instantaneously put Paraguay in the lead before netting his second of the game shortly after, leaving Bolivia with a feeling of having felled points from a winning position. La Verde was then beaten by Chile, as they were unable to come back from Ben Brereton's early opener, with the game finishing 1-0.

With two games left to play, Farias's side now has the task of evasion the foot of the group, with four sides out of five making the quarter-finals, although they face two tough tests as they take on Uruguay and Argentina, meaning they will have to challenge the odds if they are to take one of the qualification spots. That said, Uruguay's form at the start of the tournament should not fill Bolivia with fear, seeing La Celeste have just one point from their opening two matches.

Oscar Tabarez's men took on fellow group favorites Argentina in their first game, and hardly lost 1-0 as Guido Rodriguez caught the only goal of the game early on. They then tackled another tough test against a Chile side who have enjoyed a strong start, and the sides would share the points in a 1-1 draw. Eduardo Vargas gave Chile the lead in the first half, but Luis Suarez caught his nation's first goal of the tournament soon after the hour mark to pull level and earn a point for La Celeste.

Still heavily unreal to reach the final eight, Tabarez's men will hope to get their campaign going with a leading victory, which would see their place in the quarter-finals confirmed with one group game left to play. For more details about Football World Cup Packages click here.

Bolivia is estimated to remain without talismanic forward Marcelo Moreno, who tested positive for coronavirus at the start of the tournament along with several others in the camp. In his nonexistence, Gilbert Alvarez has been the main man going forward to fairly narrow success, with their only goal of the tournament so far coming from a penalty.

Jaume Cuellar will return from his suspension, though, and he should take his place back in the initial XI. Notwithstanding losing both of their opening games, goalkeeper Carlos Lampe has put in two motivated performances to keep his side in the matches, and they will hope for more recklessness for this clash. The Uruguay line will be led by the strong pair of Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani, with the pair sitting first and second correspondingly in the nation's all-time scoring charts.
