Argentina 3 – Canada 0
Argentina’s strong defensive record and attacking prowess make them the favorites to win comfortably. Canada, while capable offensively, has shown weaknesses in defense and may struggle to contain Argentina’s star players like Messi, Julián Álvarez, and Lautaro Martínez. Argentina’s recent form and Canada’s lack of top-end talent in key positions further tilt the balance in favor of a convincing Argentina victory.
