Teams Preview

Argentina

Argentina will be back to the Americas Qualifiers for the 2027 FIBA World Cup. With two convincing victories against Cuba, Argentina made a glorious start to the campaign. The hosts outplayed Cuba 105-49 in the most recent tie to take their one of the biggest blowout victories in World Cup qualifiers. It was a great offensive performance. They conceded the highest scoring of 18 points in a single quarter.

Argentina had the biggest lead of 56 points in their most recent victory against Cuba. They were the runner-up in the 2025 FIBA AmeriCup where they lost to Brazil. The hosts will play two back-to-back home matches in the current window. Their first assignment is against Uruguay. Argentina are the best side in America with defense as they allowed 58.5 PPG in Americas Qualifiers. They also rank third in scoring points (92.5) and first in total rebounds (53.5). 

The American runner-up shot 53% from the floor and 28% from the three-point line in the previous game. Six players reached in the double figures for Argentina in a pure hammering against Cuba. Gabriel Deck went for 18 points, while Nicolas Brussino scored a double-double with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Corbalan might be an offensive threat as he has been terrific in the Liga ACB. The forward has crossed the double-digit scoring eight times out of the last ten with three 20-point outbursts. We back him to drop a minimum 15-point performance in the qualifying game. 

Uruguay

Uruguay will resume their campaign for the 2027 FIBA World Cup Americas Qualifiers with a road contest against Argentina, who were the runner-up in FIBA AmeriCup last year. They are pumped up after two convincing victories in the qualifying event. Uruguay enter the matchup with a 84-82 victory against Panama. The opposition showed some character after a 33-point blowout loss in the opener. However, Uruguay broke the resilience. 

Martin Rojas hit a match-winning basket at the buzzer to deny the overtime and took the home game. Uruguay were shooting 39% from the floor and 34% from the three-point line. They were edged out in the rebounding battle. Meanwhile, Uruguay ranks third in three-point shooting (40%). They have allowed just 25.5% from threes which is third-best in Americas Qualifiers. 

Joaquin Rodriguez stole the show with 29 points and nine rebounds. He got support from Vescovi, who dropped 16 points. Luciano Parodi also contributed 11 points and seven assists. Santiago Vescovi would be a player to watch out for Uruguay. The guard averaged 18.6 points in the last six games, including two 20-point outings in the last three. We back the Penarol guard to be an offensive threat and score 20 points in the upcoming qualifier fixture.
