Team news
Jordan have no fitness concerns to report and will field a full strength team in a bid to end their World Cup on a shock high. Striker Ali Olwan, who scored their first ever goal at the tournament in the opener against Austria, is one goal away from equalling the national team’s all-time record goal tally set by Hamza Al-Dardour (31).
Argentina will likely rotate given the low stakes but Lionel Scaloni is expected to be forced into at least one change, with centre-back Cristian Romero suffering a knee injury against Austria. Lionel Messi will be rested.
Predicted line-ups
Jordan XI: Abulaila; Al-Arab, Nasib, Abu Dahab; Haddad, Al-Rashdan, Al-Rawabdeh, Abu Taha; Al-Tamari, Al-Mardi; Olwan.
Argentina XI: E. Martinez; Montiel, Senesi, L. Martinez, Tagliafico; Lo Celso, Paredes, Palacios, Almada; Alvarez, L. Martinez.
