Uruguay team news
Los Charruas boss Marcelo Bielsa has named as many as 38-member squad for the qualification ties against Argentina and Bolivia, but Manchester United midfielder Manuel Ugarte will be suspended for Friday's game due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
Meanwhile, Barcelona's Ronald Araujo is eyeing a comeback after missing the nation's last six qualifying matches.
In attack, Bielsa is likely to persist with Liverpool's Darwin Nunez leading the line.
Argentina team news
First of all, Lionel Messi will miss the March games with an adductor injury, as the Inter Miami star joins Gonzalo Montiel, Giovani Lo Celso and Paulo Dybala in the infirmary. Moreover, Inter forward Lautaro Martinez had to pull out from the squad due to a hamstring issue.
Atletico Madrid's Angel Correa should benefit from Messi's absence.
