TEAM NEWS
After naming a weakened side for the win against Greece, Argentina coach Diego Maradona will recall the likes of Carlos Tevez, Javier Mascherano and Gonzalo Higuain.
Nicolas Burdisso could start at centre-back as Walter Samuel has not fully recovered from a thigh problem. Jonas Gutierrez will return at right-back after completing a one-game ban.
Maradona must decide whether to start with playmaker Juan Veron, who returned from injury against the Greeks, or Maxi Rodriguez. The Liverpool midfielder scored a spectacular goal in the win against Mexico at the 2006 World Cup.
Mexico defender Efrain Juarez has completed a one-game ban and may come into the starting XI, possibly at the expense of Hector Moreno. Striker Carlos Vela is back in training after a hamstring injury but is likely to begin on the bench.
One booking from suspension: Bolatti, Heinze, Mascherano (Argentina); Castro, Franco, Hernandez, Moreno, Rodriguez, Torrado (Mexico).
