Uruguay vs Russia Preview

Group A has proven something of a mixed bag for the many World Cup onlookers enjoying all the action this summer. Whilst each of Egypt and Saudi Arabia have failed to hit the ground running among the opening group-stages, both Uruguay, and more specifically Russia, have served to impress from a variety of different perspectives.

Russia have arguably proven the most cohesive and enjoyable team to watch throughout the entirety of the competition. They have looked to dismantle teams with their no-nonsense attacking guile, whilst remaining largely organised and solid at the back. Stanislav Cherchesov’s side are yet to be tested in the eyes of many fans however, with Uruguay representing the perfect team to assess the true worth of this year’s proud host nation.

More Cheryshev

Despite failing to arrive as one of Russia’s main men in the run up to the summer competition, Villarreal’s Denis Cheryshev has taken the world by storm with his quick-thinking in front of goal and excellent shooting ability. His second finish against Saudi Arabia proved just how potent the former Real Madrid man can be, displaying a shrewd eye for the back of the net in even the most unlikely of circumstances.

Although he may indeed fail to register himself on the score-line for the third successive match against Uruguay, expect the 27-year-old Russian international to play a starring role for his nation once again. If his form continues at World Cup 2018 this summer, Cheryshev seems destined to find himself on the end of a big money move in the not too distant future.

 

Cavani Time

One man who has so far failed to find the back of the net in Russia however, arrives in the form of Uruguay’s Edinson Cavani. The towering PSG striker has showcased two relatively strong displays among the group-stages thus far, providing numerous chances for his likeminded teammates inside the final third, yet failing to receive the just rewards for his performances.

Cavani’s ability remains undoubted. Although the 31-year-old forward is yet to set World Cup 2018 alight this summer, the Uruguayan certainly represents a likely anytime scorer in line with our latest Uruguay vs Russia betting tips at the World Cup. Many World Cup betting tips continue to expect big things from the Ligue 1 star after all, and we can’t blame them for remaining positive over what he has to offer.

 

Close Call

Group A has the potential to culminate in largely straightforward circumstances. With both Uruguay and Russia booking their places among the latter stages of the competition at the expense of Egypt and Saudi Arabia, this particular battle is expected to end with little fanfare or major excitement, despite the potential for goals from both respective sides.

On the back of such reasoning, we’re predicting that this match will end with a 1-1 scoreline. We may ultimately find out very little about what these two teams have to offer among the latter stages of tournament, but as no side will want to squander all three points in the process, expect a close fought battle between the two in-form sides among Group A this summer.
