Starting XI - Colombia
Coach: Néstor Lorenzo
Statements - Marcelo Bielsa (Uruguay Coach)
"I dream that we win in Colombia and that we can be better than Brazil, it is my illusion, and I always ask myself if that illusion has support in the design of the team and I am convinced that it does. Without kidding myself, I think that in this case for the two matches Uruguay is in a position to dream".
"The objective is going to be the same, we are going to try to play a leading role, to attack, to play in the opponent's field, not to speculate and that the deficit we have to solve, we can do it".
Statements - Néstor Lorenzo (Colombia Coach)
"This schedule was chosen because in past years we have done well with this schedule, we have always had better adaptation to the heat. The concern is dehydration, but we have worked with the medical staff to try to play well in these conditions."
"The number of players competing is a factor, there is also the league, the teammates, but when you make the list you have to cut for one side. Everyone is locked in and I hope they continue at a good level. No one is vetoed here, on the contrary, we are open to call the best players".
"Bielsa is a great coach, he has set a style wherever he has coached. I don't know him personally, but I remember that he coached the Newell's reserve team while I was in the Argentinos reserve team with Pékerman and they were great matches. Bielsa had a more dynamic style than José. I admire him as a coach because he got the most out of the players".

Uruguay
Uruguay arrived at the beginning of the week in the city of Barranquilla. The team coached by Marcelo Bielsa has an important task, especially knowing that they have just lost to Ecuador as visitors in somewhat similar conditions. Getting a point out of their visit to Colombia would give enormous merit to the extensive and hard work they have done preparing for this match.
The non-call-up of Luis Suarez remains a surprise for Uruguayan fans. However, the team still has good players, with whom they hope to perform well.
Colombia
The Colombian national team has had a good start in the World Cup qualifiers. Teams are asked to win at home and draw away from home at least, and the team coached by Nestor Lorenzo has achieved that in the first matches against Venezuela and Chile respectively.
With some obligatory and, of course, technical novelties, the tricolor will face a new challenge. And the fact is that facing Marcelo Bielsa's teams has been very complex for the Colombian team, and with a roster like the one Uruguay has, it will always be a very careful rival, so it will have to bring out the virtues it had managed to incorporate before the beginning of the road to the next World Cup.
