La Albiceleste were not at their fluent best against Panama but got the job done while keeping a clean sheet. They have been impressive at home recently and will start off as the favourites.

Curacao, meanwhile, are coming off playing in the CONCACAF Nations League, so fatigue could be a factor. Argentina easily outclass them in terms of squad quality and form and are expected to eke out a comfortable win.
