Brazil hold the upper hand when it comes to head-to-head records between both sides. In a total of 113 matches played, Neymar's side have won 46 matches. Argentina meanwhile have secured 41 wins and 25 matches have ended in draws. The last meeting between these sides, which was also in the FIFA World Cup 2022 CONMEBOL Qualifiers was suspended due to some Argentinian players breaching COVID protocols. Argentina won twice in the last two occasions when these sides clashed with each other. The most notable of them was the Copa America final earlier this year where a solitary Angel di Maria goal proved to be the difference. Messi finally got his hands on an international title with Argentina at the end of that game.
