But convincing wins over Mexico and Poland showcased why they are considered one of the top contenders for the trophy. They face Australia at the Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium in a Round of 16 clash where they will be looking to continue their run in the tournament. Australia have surprised everyone with their entry to the knock-out phase of the campaign. Not many gave them a chance to rise from a 4-1 drubbing at the hands of France, but they galvanised themselves in style to get the better of Tunisia and Denmark. The wins showcased the character of Graham Arnold’s team and they can be a tough nut to crack. Argentina versus Australia will be telecasted on the Sports18 network and streamed on the Jio Cinema app from 12:30 am IST. FIFA World Cup 2022 Round of 16 Schedule in IST: Know Who Play Whom in Pre-Quarters of Football WC

Lionel Messi has never scored for Argentina in the knock-out phase of the World Cups and he will be looking to change that ominous stat. He will lead the forward line with Julian Alvarez playing as the left attacker and Angel Di Maria on the right. Enzo Fernandes will start ahead of Leandro Paredes in the middle of the park with Rodrigo de Paul and Alexis Mac Allister as the box-to-box midfielders.

Australia will play a 4-1-4-1 formation with defensive midfielder Aaron Mooy sitting in the pocket just ahead of the backline to shield them. Craig Goodwin and Mathew Leckie will be tasked with creating the chances from the flanks. Mitchell Duke needs to be efficient in the opposition box as he is not likely to see much of the ball and the chances might be far and few for him.
