Argentina continue their preparations for the defense of their world title when they face Venezuela in an international friendly in Miami Gardens on Friday.

La Albiceleste booked their ticket to the 2026 FIFA World Cup all the way back in March and have had their eyes on next summer’s tournament ever since, with Lionel Scaloni’s men considered favorites to defend their crown. No nation has won back-to-back World Cups since Brazil in 1962, but Argentina will be desperate to change that.

It’s all friendly action until the tournament and they should secure a victory in their first match since the end of qualifying. They beat Venezuela 3–0 in September and should have no issues swatting aside their fellow South Americans once more.

Venezuela did win their last friendly with Argentina back in 2019 but are significant underdogs on Friday. Given their recent form and disastrous defensive record, they will be lucky to end the fixture with their pride intact.

Here’s how to watch Argentina‘s battle with Venezuela in the United States.
