Jordan vs Argentina Odds, Tips & Predictions: Comfortable Win for the World Champions?
Argentina continue their 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign with a Group J game against minnows Jordan.
The Argentinians are already through to the Round of 32 after picking up maximum points, while the Jordanians are out after two defeats from two.
This looks like a mismatch on paper, with Argentina the overwhelming favourites to rack up another three points. Read on for the best Jordan vs Argentina odds and picks.
Jordan vs Argentina Picks & Preview
Jordan’s first World Cup campaign has been tough, with Jamal Sellami’s side suffering two defeats and an early exit. However, on a positive note, the Chivalrous Ones have scored in both fixtures and have been competitive in North America.
Going by the pre-World Cup Group J odds, Jordan were the huge favourites to finish bottom of the pile. Beating Argentina will be an arduous task, but can they keep up their Group J scoring run?
Jordan played their part but were beaten 3-1 by Austria in their opening group game. They were level until Yazan Al-Arab’s own goal 14 minutes from time, and a last-gasp Marko Arnautovic penalty added gloss to the scoreline for the Austrians at Levi’s Stadium.
Jordan then suffered a narrow defeat to Algeria in Santa Clara. They led at the break thanks to Nizar Al-Rashdan’s effort. However, late goals from Nadhir Benbouali and Amine Gouiri turned the game on its head.
Argentina have looked like one of the strongest teams in the competition so far. The World Cup holders are desperate to keep their crown, and Lionel Scaloni’s men are already safely through to the knockouts with one group game spare.
Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest player of all time, has been the star of the show, scoring five times in the opening two games. In fact, the Inter Miami ace has scored every Argentina goal at the World Cup so far.
Messi capped his 200th appearance for his national side by netting his first-ever World Cup hat-trick in the 3-0 victory over Algeria. The little magician followed that up with a brace in the 2-0 triumph against Austria in game two.
The job of securing a Round of 32 spot is done, but the world champions will want to finish Group J on maximum points. Argentina will be eyeing a big victory in Texas.
We are backing Scaloni’s side to come out on top by a margin at AT&T Stadium, and 10Bet is offering 5/4 for Argentina to win -2.
Our Prediction: Argentina to Win -2 – 5/4
Jordan vs Argentina Picks & Odds
Of course, backing Messi to score again is tempting, but the 39-year-old is set to start Argentina’s final group game from the bench. Scaloni is unlikely to risk his main man, so the goals will have to come from elsewhere.
Atletico Madrid ace Julian Alvarez is expected to get a start, and he will be eager to make an impression after spending most of his World Cup on the sidelines. We like the World Cup odds of 16/5 for Alvarez to open the scoring in Arlington.
Our Prediction: Julian Alvarez to Score First – 16/5
Jordan vs Argentina Predictions
No disrespect to Jordan, who have been spirited in Group J, but Argentina should dominate their final group match from start to finish. The South American nation is always looking to put on a show for the fans, and they are in red-hot form right now.
Argentina have won every half of football in the 2026 World Cup so far, and the world champions should continue the trend against Jordan. Take a punt on the Argentinians to win both halves at 10Bet’s solid price of 21/20.
Our Prediction: Argentina to Win Both Halves – 21/20
