  • Argentina, the defending champions of this World Cup, have been in terrifying form recently. They've achieved an outstanding record of 9 wins and 1 draw in the last 10 games, with a win - rate as high as 90%.

Argentina's recent form has been nothing short of spectacular. In their previous round
