Namibia can upset the odds in World Cup warm-up

Uruguay vs Namibia Predictions

These sides have played each other four times before and never has the score difference been more than a couple of scores. I expect another close contest with Namibia to get inside eight points.

Head to Head

Uruguay hold a 3-1 advantage over Namibia in their four matches against each other. Their last meeting game was in 2019 when Namibia held on for a 30-28 victory.

Uruguay Form

Uruguay began their World Cup preparations last week with a narrow home win over Chile.

The two South American sides went at it for 80 minutes with just a point separating the sides in the end. The 26-25 success for Uruguay will assist in building momentum but they’ll want to push on this weekend against a fellow World Cup qualifier.

Uruguay are expected to make a few changes. Their side will be announced later today.

Namibia Form

Namibia are regulars at the Rugby World Cup but despite a number of impressive performances, they have never actually managed to win a game.

This year they will hope for a result to go in their favour, but they’ll need to get some results before the tournament kicks off. Last week the Namibians lost 34-27 at home to a strong Argentina XV side.

It was an interesting match for Namibia and one they could easily have won had some things fallen in their favour.

Namibia will be looking to give some other players a run this week. It was been a long trip to South America and some players may need to take a break.
