La Albiceleste have already confirmed their position as group winners following convincing 3\u20130 and 2\u20130 victories over Algeria and Austria respectively. However, Lionel Scaloni will want to avoid a loss of momentum to prepare for their Round of 32 match on Friday. Lionel Messi, who has scored all five of his team\u2019s goals, will also have the opportunity to extend his record as the FIFA World Cup\u2019s all-time top scorer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, Jordan are playing without tangible consequences, having already been eliminated. Yet Jamal Sellami\u2019s side have given a good account of themselves, falling 3\u20131 to Austria in their opener before a narrow 2\u20131 loss against Algeria. A similar, resilient performance against the reigning champions would be a source of pride for a relatively small football nation, and would provide a platform for future tournaments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below are the confirmed lineups for Argentina vs Jordan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Read More:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2026\/06\/26\/a-strong-world-cup-start-for-the-usa-and-other-lessons-from-world-cup-groups-d-f\/\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Strong World Cup Start for The USA and Other Lessons From Groups D-F<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\"><smartframe-embed class=\"smartframe_wp_element\" customer-id=\"b0c95bc04383cef69c6b47df872135cf\" image-id=\"WmOBgr1YXG5U\" style=\"width: 100%; display: inline-flex; max-width: 8484px; aspect-ratio: 8484\/5656;\" ><\/smartframe-embed><\/p>\n<h2><b>Argentina vs Jordan Confirmed Lineups<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Argentina Team News<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a  href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/sports\/soccer\/argentinas-romero-steps-up-recovery-set-miss-jordan-clash-2026-06-26\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cristian Romero<\/a> suffered a knee injury against Austria and is a doubt.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Argentina have a clean bill of health aside from the Tottenham Hotspur centre-back, meaning Scaloni\u2019s selection dilemmas will instead be centred around rest and rotation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A host of key names are set to have their involvement reduced with Argentina&#8217;s next match on Friday night in mind.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Read More:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2026\/06\/26\/ecuador-finally-finds-its-goals-and-world-cup-round-of-32\/\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ecuador Finally Finds Its Goals &#8211; and The World Cup Round of 32<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"430\" height=\"335\" style=\"border: 0; overflow: hidden; border-radius: 0; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/worldcup-odds-service-1086219671413.europe-west2.run.app\/embed\/29494366\" scrolling=\"no\" loading=\"lazy\"><br \/>\n<\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><b>Jordan Team News<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a  href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/jordan-vs-argentina-predicted-lineup-083000057.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jordan have no injury concerns<\/a> and Sellami is expected to field his strongest team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After an encouraging performance against Austria, the manager is expected to name an unchanged side for this significantly sterner test.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Argentina Confirmed Lineup<\/b><\/h3>\n<div class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [&amp;_&gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3 standard-markdown\">\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"><strong>Starting XI<\/strong>: Emiliano Mart\u00ednez; Marcos Senesi, Nicol\u00e1s Tagliafico, Nicol\u00e1s Otamendi; Leandro Paredes, Giovani Lo Celso, Exequiel Palacios; Juli\u00e1n \u00c1lvarez, Giuliano Simeone, Nico Paz, Lautaro Mart\u00ednez.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>Jordan Confirmed Lineup<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"><strong>Starting XI<\/strong>: Yazeed Abulaila; Abdallah Nasib, Husam Abudahab, Yazan Alarab, Ehsan Haddad; Noor Alrawabdeh, Mohannad Abutaha, Nizar Alrashdan; Ali Olwan, Odeh Fakhoury, Ali Azaizeh.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Featured Image Credit<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>IMAGO \/ Newscom<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is the latest team news and confirmed lineups for Argentina vs Jordan in their final Group J match.
