Hi sutent,
There is always a great games when Brazil meet Argentina in a football games. Its always a classic games because of the rivalry. It can be consider as a derby game. There always a high pressure for both team to win.
Argentina will have more pressure to win this games because of their position in the South America standing. They need to win this games to keep their position or move on the ladder board. They are now in the 4th place and it is the last place for the automatic qualifying for the World Cup Final from South America. If they drop to the 5th place at the end of the qualifying, they will have to play a play-off games to be in South Africa next year.
Brazil, on the other hand, will make their quest to qualify for the World Cup Final in South Africa almost certain with the win in this game. They are the top of the standing board with 27 points right now and the 5th place (Ecuador) are only have 20 points. Brazil also have less pressure compare to Argentina in this game.
Even though Brazil never won the previous games at the Gigante de Arroyito before, I fancy them triumph this time. The score? I don't dare to predict but hope the will be a high score.

It's going to be one tough match. Argentina really needs to win this match, as it's not very well placed in the tables... They had a fluctuating evolution along this qualifying campaign, and I don't know how much time will Maradona be kept on the bench if they don't win. Argentina played well in the latest friendly match against Russia, but they will have to face Brazil now, not Russia...
The Brazilian won't be cutting Argentina any slack, even if they are very well placed and virtually qualified for the 2010 World Cup - we all know the rivalry between the two great football teams.
I think Argentina will win 2-1 .
