Argentina and Uruguay meet in an International Friendly on Friday 13 November 2026, and this page sets out the predicted lineups for both sides. Neither team has a readable run of recent line-ups in our data, so the picture below is a squad-based estimate rather than a form-based read on how settled either side has looked.
Argentina Predicted Lineup
Our projection for Argentina uses a default 4-2-3-1 shape. That shape is a fallback rather than a known setup, and no coach name is on file, so it should not be read as the manager’s preferred system. For Argentina, we have no readable recent line-ups for them, which means the expected XI cannot be built from how often players have started. No individual in the projection has a start count that stands out, so no single name is singled out here. The side is best treated as a starting point until an official team is named.
Argentina predicted XI: Juan Musso; Leonardo Balerdi, Nicolás Tagliafico, Gonzalo Montiel, Agustin Giay; Equi Fernández, Exequiel Palacios, Thiago Almada, Nico Paz, Alexis Mac Allister; Julián Álvarez

| M | 20 | Alexis Mac Allister | 0/0 | 0/0 |
| F | 9 | Julián Álvarez | 0/0 | 0/0 |
Uruguay Predicted Lineup
Uruguay’s projection is also built on a default 4-2-3-1 shape, with no formation data behind it and no coach name recorded. As with Argentina, we have no readable recent line-ups for them, so this predicted line-up reflects the squad rather than recent selection patterns. No player in the projection has a start count that stands out, and the defensive and midfield names shown are placed on the default shape rather than on any observed pattern.
Uruguay predicted XI: Santiago Mele; José María Giménez, Sebastián Cáceres, Ronald Araujo, Guillermo Varela; Facundo Bernal, Rodrigo Bentancur, Nicolas De la Cruz, Federico Valverde, Giorgian de Arrascaeta; Rodrigo Aguirre

Team News and Confirmed Absentees
Argentina’s team news is limited to two confirmed absentees: Aaron Anselmino and Emiliano Martínez are out injured. Anselmino is listed in defence and Martínez in goal, so both losses touch the back line and the goalkeeping position. The bench includes Lisandro Martínez, Gerónimo Rulli, Gianluca Prestianni, Giuliano Simeone Baldini, José Manuel López, Enzo Fernández and Valentin Barco, but none of them has a recorded start in the data, so we cannot say which of them is best placed to come in.
| Player | Pos | Status | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aaron Anselmino | D | injured | Thigh problems |
| Emiliano Martínez | G | injured | Broken jaw |
Uruguay’s only confirmed absentee is Sebastian jaume, who is out injured and listed as a goalkeeper. That leaves the goalkeeping position as the one affected in the available team news. The bench is made up of Darwin Nuñez, Bruno Damiani, Facundo Pellistri, Agustín Canobbio, Lucas Torreira, Mathias Olivera and Rodrigo Zalazar, and with no recorded starts for any of them, there is no data to rank them for a place in the side.
| Player | Pos | Status | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sebastian jaume | G | injured | Muscle bruise |
Where These Predictions Come From
Each projection is meant to draw on the last matches-used line-ups for that side, with more recent games weighted more heavily than older ones, and players confirmed injured or suspended removed from the selection. In this case, neither side has any recent line-ups recorded, so no start counts or weightings could be applied and both XIs are squad-based estimates. This is a projection that can change when the official team is announced.
