Though La Albiceleste don’t have the best defense in the tournament, in all probability, they do have the best attack. Gonzalo Higuain has been in a brilliant form off late, scoring 36 goals in 35 Serie A matches for Napoli this term. On the other hand, Sergio Aguero has scored 24 goals in 30 appearances for Manchester City in the Premier League.
Lionel Messi, who scored 26 goals and gave 16 assists in 33 La Liga appearances this term, will most likely start on the right. The onus will be on him to create majority of the chances for his teammates and his ability to cut inside from the right side and take some beautiful left-footed shots is sure to create a lot of havoc in the opposition's’ ranks.
Higuain, due to his lack of pace, will most probably start in the middle and Aguero on his left side. Defenders will have to perform out of their skins to curb the threat posed by the front three of Messi-Higuain-Aguero.
