River Plate vs Urawa Red Diamonds Preview and Team News
River Plate Team News
River Plate have long been considered Argentina’s most successful team, domestically and internationally. They’ve qualified for the Club World Cup through their regional ranking, as the best in the CONMEBOL confederation (South America).
Their Summer transfer market window has been eventful, with winger Franco Mastantuono rumoured to be followed by Real Madrid. The player’s camp has neither denied nor confirmed the rumours, while the club have insisted it will focus on the CWC before discussing an eventual transfer.
River Plate have several names in the team sheet that may be familiar to European fans: Marcos Acuña and Germán Pezella.
River Plate Predicted Lineup vs Urawa Red Diamonds
River Plate Predicted lineup vs Urawa Red Diamonds (4-3-3): Armani; Acuña, Quarta, Pezella, Bustos; Pérez, Castaño, Fernández; Colidio, Driussi, Mastantuono.
Urawa Red Diamonds Team News
Similarly to the MLS clubs, Urawa will have to pause their J1 League campaign. They rank third with 34 points in 21 games, six points behind first-placed Kashima.
They’ve lacked consistency, as can be seen in the J1 league. Urawa failed to register the same result more than a U-return, making them a tricky squad to describe.
Urawa are considered the ‘minnows’ of their Club World Cup group, and have been paired with Inter, Monterrey, and River Plate, and are one of the four AFC teams to have qualified for the CWC. Interestingly enough, they’ve only won the J1 on one occasion, but have often fared well in the AFC.
Urawa Red Diamonds Predicted lineup vs River Plate
Urawa Red Diamonds Predicted lineup vs River Plate (4-2-3-1): Nishikawa; Ogiwara, Höibraten, Boza, Ishihara; Gustafson, Yasui; Watanebe, Sávio, Kaneki; Matsuo.

- Prediction: River Plate to win
- Odds: 1.55 (22Bet)
- Score Prediction: River Plate 3-0 Urawa Red Diamonds
Urawa have been successful in Asian international environments, but haven’t been tested beyond their continent’s limits. They are likely to experience a difficult landscape in the Club World Cup and will face one of the most victorious South American teams.
Japan are known for producing disciplined and methodical players, which represent the polar opposite of the South American idea of football. With River Plate fielding better-quality players, the victory is expected to be theirs.
River Plate vs Urawa Red Diamonds Betting Tip
- Pick: River Plate to keep a clean sheet
- Odds: 3.3 (22Bet)
More than a tactical profile, the question revolves around nerves. Urawa are not used to competing at the international stage. This may be a problem when most players function on discipline. These encounters often require the young talents to think outside the box, which players often struggle to do under pressure.
