Jordan and Argentina meet for the first time as the World Cup group stage closes out, with the table already settled and very different moods in each camp at kick-off.
Jordan, making their World Cup debut this summer, have already been eliminated after losing their opening two matches. They go again here with nothing left to play for but pride.
Reigning world champions Argentina have sailed through, topping the group with two wins from two and a Round of 32 spot already secured before a ball is kicked here.
There is no head-to-head history between these two, but the stakes are clear: Jordan want a parting performance, while Argentina can afford to rotate with the knockouts in mind.
Jordan vs Argentina Form
Jordan have lost three on the bounce, including a 3-1 defeat to Austria and a 2-1 loss to Algeria to open their debut World Cup. Nizar Al-Rashdan struck against Algeria and Ali Olwan grabbed their first-ever World Cup goal against Austria, but the wins have dried up across recent outings.
Argentina arrive in serious form, the Win Market landing seven times in their last ten matches. They beat Algeria 3-0 and saw off Austria 2-0 to top the group, with Lionel Messi the standout, plundering all five goals across those two outings.

Jordan vs Argentina Prediction & Best Bets
Our prediction: Jordan are out and Argentina have one foot already in the next round. A rotated Argentina side is still likely to have too much for an eliminated Jordan outfit. Our predicted scoreline is Jordan 0-2 Argentina, though all football outcomes remain uncertain.
Best Bets
Over 2.5 Goals appeals here, available at 8/13 with AK Bets. The model projects 3.29 total goals for this fixture, and Argentina have scored five across their two group outings so far.

Jordan vs Argentina Bet Builder
Our four-leg bet builder leans into Argentina's class: Lionel Messi to score anytime, Nicolas Tagliafico to be shown a card, Argentina to win and over 2.5 goals in the fixture.
Messi is the obvious anchor, having scored all five of Argentina's goals at this tournament. Anytime Goalscorer keeps a sensible price while pulling in the standout man.
Tagliafico to be shown a card reflects his defensive role and willingness to commit fouls, a leg that adds value to the overall price without venturing too far off the beaten track.
Argentina to win is straightforward. The holders have topped the group and carry too much for a Jordan side already out of the running.
Over 2.5 goals rounds it off, with Argentina's firepower and Jordan's struggles at this level pointing towards a fixture with goals in it.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 18.49/1 and is as short as 11/1 elsewhere. That's a difference in potential winnings of £75 from best to worst price.

Jordan vs Argentina Talking Points
This is a first-ever meeting between the two nations, and the headline act is Lionel Messi, playing in his record sixth World Cup and already with five goals to his name this tournament. Whether he features here is the question, with Argentina likely to rest key men for the knockouts. For Jordan, there is genuine pride on offer: despite going out, they became the first World Cup debutant since Ivory Coast in 2006 to score in both of their opening two matches. A parting performance against the holders would cap a landmark debut campaign.
