Bookmaker-Ratings expert Emmanuel Adebayor has made his prediction for Saturday’s FIFA World Cup Group D match between Argentina and Mexico.
Argentina’s national team in World Cup 2022 got off to the worst possible start with a loss to Saudi Arabia. Lionel Messi and his teammates went into the World Cup in great shape. They hadn’t lost in 36 games.
Argentina began the match with huge confidence and were leading after the first half, but after the half-time interval, the game completely turned on its head.
Meanwhile, Mexico drew against Poland and missed a chance to gain the upper hand in their group.
Both Argentina and Mexico need 3 points to keep their chances alive for Round 16.
My favorite? I would definitely tell you I think it is Argentina because they lost their first game so they are back to “war”. They have to play a strong game. They have to be ready to be able to win
Mexico, also now obviously have to win, obviously to gain points, and have confidence through the tournament.
It is not going to be easy for both, obviously, I can imagine all Argentinians now are all on their bite now. They have to win a second game or else they will be out.
If you ask me for my prediction, I would definitely say Argentina will win. I can also see Messi is scoring, because of the doubt that was installed in Argentina’s camp.
I think Mexico will score and I think the final score will be 3:1 for Argentina.
