Will Argentina top the group?

Today's football schedule and live broadcasts on October 16th are attracting attention from fans, especially the matches during FIFA Days. Besides two late friendly matches, the 2026 World Cup qualifying matches in the South American region are also highly anticipated, always featuring dramatic moments.

Argentina has a chance to consolidate their top spot in the group when they host Bolivia at home. However, in terms of recent form, Argentina hasn't really impressed fans, having lost one, drawn one, and won only one of their last three World Cup qualifying matches.

Meanwhile, the Bolivian national team will travel to Argentina with great confidence, having displayed impressive form recently. Bolivia currently boasts a perfect record in their last three World Cup qualifying matches.

Brazil is also expected to have a relatively easy match against Peru. Playing at home, Brazil is also facing an opponent that is not in good form in the World Cup qualifiers. Peru is currently second to last in the South American qualifying group with only one win in nine matches played.
