Uruguay vs Venezuela Prediction and Betting Tips | June 10th 2025
Uruguay will welcome Venezuela to Estadio Centenario in the FIFA World Cup 2026 (CONMEBOL) qualifiers on Tuesday. The two teams are separated by three points in the league table. The hosts are in fifth place with 21 points while La Vinotinto are seventh in the standings.
La Celeste have seen a drop in form and are winless in their last four games in the World Cup qualifiers. They met Paraguay in their previous outing and suffered a 2-0 away loss. Notably, they are yet to open their goalscoring account in 2025.
The visitors, meanwhile, have seen an uptick in form. After a 1-0 home win over Peru in March, they overcame Bolivia 2-0 at home last week. They took the lead via Héctor Cuellar's own goal, and Salomón Rondón doubled their lead in the 30th minute.

- Uruguay have won just one of their last nine games in the World Cup qualifiers, with that triumph registered at home in November.

Uruguay vs Venezuela Prediction
La Celeste are winless in their last four games, scoring just once, and will look to improve upon that record. They are unbeaten in their last five home meetings against the visitors, recording three wins. They have scored at least three goals in three games during that period.
Marcelo Bielsa will look to make a couple of changes to the starting XI as he continues to search for his first win of the year. Rodrigo Bentancur is back from a suspension and is likely to return to the starting XI.
La Vinotinto have won their last two games while keeping clean sheets, and will look to conclude their international break on a winning note. Notably, they have won just one of their last 13 games in this fixture, with that triumph registered in the Copa America in 2016.
While the visitors head into the match in better form than La Celeste, considering the recent history in this fixture, a low-scoring draw will likely ensue.
Prediction: Uruguay 1-1 Venezuela
