Argentina and Brazil are plagued by injuries before the World Cup qualifier Super Clasico. The two biggest stars of both teams are not in the squad due to injuries. Lionel Messi and Neymar have already been ruled out. In addition, Argentina’s Paulo Dybala and Giovani Lo Celso are also out of the field with injuries.

Meanwhile, Brazil’s goalkeeper Alisson Becker suffered a head injury in the 2-1 win against Colombia yesterday. Due to this injury, he is not playing against Argentina. In addition, Gabriel Magalhaes and Bruno Guimaraes are also unable to play in the next match due to yellow cards in two matches.

On the other hand, Nicolas Gonzalez saw a red card in the difficult 1-0 win against Uruguay. Apart from this, Lautaro Martinez was ruled out of the Uruguay match due to a muscle injury. He is unlikely to be available in the Brazil match either. There are also concerns about Rodrigo de Paul. He was not played against Uruguay due to injury.

Although Argentina’s World Cup-winning coach Scaloni is confident of getting De Paul against Brazil, “I think he will be fit before the Brazil match. We will try our best, I am sure he will be ready.”

It is worth noting that Brazil and Argentina will face each other in the Clasico at the Monumental Stadium on Wednesday (March 26). The match will start at 6 am Bangladesh time. A win in this match will ensure Argentina’s ticket to the 2026 World Cup.

Argentina is now at the top of the points table in the Latin region’s World Cup qualifiers. They have 28 points from 13 matches. Brazil, who are in third place, have got 21 points from the same number of matches.
