Projected final score: 1-3<\/h3>

Colombia's 37-place ranking advantage<\/strong> (13th vs 50th) and a fully fit squad featuring Luis Diaz and James Rodriguez make them heavy favourites here, with 1.36<\/a> reflecting that dominance. Uzbekistan's World Cup debut is further undermined by three confirmed absentees, Masharipov, Yuldoshev, and Alikulov, stripping Cannavaro's side of key creative outlets.<\/p>

Uzbekistan have conceded 9 goals in their last 6 matches<\/strong>, pointing to genuine defensive fragility, while Colombia's warm-up wins over Costa Rica and Jordan produced 5 goals combined. Both sides carry enough attacking intent to find the net, making 2.30<\/a> a reasonable angle, but Colombia's superior firepower drives the total to four goals.<\/p>
