Venezuela vs Argentina: Team news & key stats
Lionel Messi has been named in the squad, although having played just 24 minutes so far this season for new club PSG, whether he features or not in Venezuela remains to be seen.
Paulo Dybala has been recalled to the squad for the first time in two years, while his Serie A colleague Lautaro Martinez is also included.
The hosts are without centre-back Yordan Osorio with the Parma defender pulling out of the squad with an ankle injury.
Key Stats:
Argentina's form in front of goal has been good away from home with Scaloni's side having scored twice in all three of their away games.Venezuela have kept just two clean sheets in their last 11 matches in all competitions and they remain one of the weakest CONMEBOL sides, having won just four of their last 29 World Cup qualifiers.
While La Vinotinto have made life tough for Argentina in the past, the continental champions are on a 20-match unbeaten run and should be able to see off their inferior opponents.
