Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan are preparing for the biggest match in the country's football history. Head coach Fabio Cannavaro, who captained Italy to World Cup glory in 2006, has encouraged his players to enjoy the occasion while remaining fearless against one of South America's strongest teams. Manchester City defender Abdukodir Khusanov is expected to anchor the defence, while captain Eldor Shomurodov will lead the attack. Midfielder Jaloliddin Masharipov remains a doubt with a back injury, but otherwise the White Wolves have few selection concerns. (Reuters)
Colombia
Colombia return to the World Cup after an eight-year absence under Néstor Lorenzo, bringing an experienced squad led by James Rodríguez, Luis Díaz, Jefferson Lerma and Daniel Muñoz. Lorenzo has stressed that Uzbekistan are a well-organised side with several high-quality players and warned against any complacency after a series of surprise results in the opening week of the tournament. Colombia have no major injury concerns and are expected to field their strongest available lineup. (Reuters)
