Uruguay will take on Colombia in the World Cup qualifiers at the Centenario Stadium on Friday.
Uruguay are on a poor run of form which has seen them go winless in their last five matches across all competitions. They are fourth in the group standings, six points behind leaders Argentina and three behind second-placed Colombia.
Colombia had managed to beat Argentina back in September. They then fell to a defeat against Bolivia but bounced back again with a recent win over Chile. They will be confident heading into the game.

Uruguay team news
Darwin Núñez’s suspension has been overturned by Court of Arbitration for Sport, allowing him to feature again after also playing last month while the case was under review.
However, Núñez is one of seven players walking a disciplinary tightrope, as a booking in this match would trigger a suspension. Others at risk include Manuel Ugarte, Santiago Bueno, Nahitan Nández, and José María Giménez.
Colombia team news
Colombia, meanwhile, have suffered a setback with Luis Sinisterra withdrawing late due to injury. His absence is significant, as he made a crucial impact off the bench against Chile, scoring and assisting to secure the win.
Further blows include Juventus full-back Juan Cabal, who tore his ACL shortly after joining the squad, alongside midfield absences Jefferson Lerma and Yáser Asprilla, who remain sidelined.
