Venezuela hosts Uruguay in round 6 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 9th at Estadio Olímpico (Caracas)
Venezuela can be successful at the Copa America. The Maroons were 4th in the continental championship in 2011, and they managed to reach the quarterfinals in the last two tournaments. But the qualifiers for the World Cups have always been a problem — the Venezuelans have never managed to reach the final stage. Under the management of Jose Peseiro, the team doesn’t succeed in everything either. The home victory over Chile looks like a sensation, especially since Venezuela invariably lost the rest of the games. The unsuccessful streak continued after a long pause. Bolivia did not allow the Maroons to earn a single point. The Venezuelans still managed to answer an early goal, but, as often happens, they lacked the strength for the ending and conceded twice more in the last half hour.

In the first four rounds of qualification, Uruguay scored only six points. The team won twice and lost the same number of times. There were hopes that now the men of Oscar Washington Tabares will be able to step up. But they disappointed their fans again in the last round. Hosting unyielding but completely unstarred Paraguay, the Uruguayans gained only a draw. Moreover, Luis Suarez and the company did not create so many chances in the opponent’s penalty area. Perhaps now it is worth mentioning that the coaching staff didn’t call up Edinson Cavani, who gained excellent shape by the end of the season and scored a lot of goals for Manchester United in May. Moreover, Fernando Muslera was one of the heroes. An experienced goalkeeper, who has healed a serious injury, made several saves.
Of course, Uruguay has a noticeable advantage in head-to-head meetings. But it's not so easy for a grandee with Venezuela. Yes, the Maroons won only one match out of the last seven, but four games ended in draws. Both teams have not been impressive in recent weeks. It is unlikely that the upcoming match will be spectacular, so we recommend betting on Under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
