Uruguay vs Colombia. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers (October 8, 2021).

Uruguay are 3rd in the qualification table. Their direct opponents, Ecuador and Colombia are just two points behind Uruguay, and Paraguay are also closing up on them. Oscar Tabarez' men had two great games in the last rounds and earned six points. At home Uruguay predictably crushed one of outsiders, Bolivia, with a score of 4:2.

Colombia are on the 5th line in the South American qualification table, but they still have chances to overtake Uruguay and even Argentina. After a series of three draws, Colombia finally got a victory. Reinaldo Rueda's charges defeated Chile at home (3:1). Already in the first half, Miguel Borja chalked up a double; he first scored a penalty, and a minute later netted another goal. In the 74th minute, Luis Diaz scored the third goal and secured a win for Colombia.
