Uruguay - Saudi Arabia Prediction, Picks and Tips
Second day in Group A of the World Cup with the match between the favorite and the Cinderella of the group. The Uruguayans saved a match with a header from Giménez in the 89th minute. It was a necessary and too fair victory for the Charrúas who started as favorites to be first in the group. A strong defense and good control of the game but with little idea, insufficient to hurt an Egyptian army well planted, pressing and that complicated much the game of the South Americans. The Arabs, meanwhile, took a humiliating thrashing to the host 5-0 and complicated, and much, any chance for Asians.
They dominated in possession but not in creation. A selection without ideas above that was unable to shoot between the three clubs and that, before the Uruguayan team, will have, if possible, more complicated. Despite the victory, the Uruguayan team felt strange with the type of game shown by their rival and must perfect small aspects in this group to make the most of the eliminating phase. They must not fail. A victory will practically put Tabarez in the eighth.
Saudi Arabia is one of the weakest teams in the FIFA Ranking. 5-0 against Russia denote Arab weakness in football. Uruguay dominated an uncomfortable match against Egypt that knew how to resolve in the end. Few opportunities are expected for the Saudis due to the lack of talent above and the strong Uruguayan defense.
