DON'T CRY ARGENTINA

TWO huge World Cup group games to enjoy this weekend as a result of the shock defeats of Argentina and Germany on Matchday One.

When Argentina and Mexico kick off this evening, they will know the result of the earlier fixture between Poland and Saudi Arabia.

La Albiceleste remain 13-8 favourites with Betway to top Group C but to do that they must beat a Mexico side who were, arguably, unfortunate to only come away with a point against the Poles earlier in the week despite the penalty miss of Robert Lewandowski.

Mexico have failed to score in their last three World Cup games but, in Alexis Vega and Hirving Lozano, they have quality forwards.

I expect them to breach an Argentine defence which looks sure to include Lisandro Martinez of Manchester United at the expense of Spurs’ Cristian Romero, who looked short of match fitness against Saudi Arabia.
