Friendlies
In Buenos Aires, preparations are underway to properly send off the legend Lionel Messi in this third friendly for Argentina in the last week. The team has warmed up appropriately so far with two matches, easily defeating Bolivia 4-0 and Burkina Faso 7-0. Expectations are again for an easy victory, marked by Messi's final match for the national team. It is natural to expect that he will score, and it wouldn't be surprising if he does so more than once in this case.
Benin is ranked 93rd in the FIFA rankings and at the end of September played two matches in the Africa Cup qualifiers. They won at home 2-1 against Mauritania and drew 1-1 away against Burkina Faso. However, against more serious African teams, they usually lose their away matches and have had some unpleasant defeats recently. Overall, it is clear that they have nothing to oppose a team of Argentina's caliber.
Prediction: victory with -2.5 AH for Argentina and at least one goal from MessiA celebration is expected in Messi's last match with the national team. It is more than normal to expect him to mark it with a goal, or even two or more, as logically, the odds for him to score at any time are low. Argentina's victory is beyond doubt and will likely be by at least three goals difference again.
