Uruguay will be the only South American team to play their last preparation match for the World Cup in their home and they expect a full stadium.

The 'charrúas' will try to win their third World Cup, after the ones obtained in 1930 (when they were hosts) and in 1950 (when they defeated Brazil in the memorable 'Maracanazo' final).

The Uruguay National Team is in Group B along with Russia, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, and together with their all-time leading scorers, Luis Suárez (50) and Edison Cavani (42), they hope to touch glory again.
