Qualification history
Since the adoption of the current FIFA World Cup™ qualification format in the CONMEBOL Zone, Bolivia have never fared better than the seventh place they managed in the Korea/Japan 2002 preliminaries, when they saw their hopes of reaching the finals evaporate in the final few games. The only time they have ever negotiated a qualifying campaign successfully came when they took second place behind Brazil on the road to USA 1994. 

FIFA World Cup™ finals history
It may surprise some to know that Bolivia contested two of the first four FIFA World Cup™ finals: Uruguay 1930 and Brazil 1950. However, it was not until their third and final appearance to date, at USA 1994, that they earned their first point, which came in a goalless draw with Korea Republic in their second group game. Their maiden world finals goal arrived in their next match, a 3-1 loss to Spain that sealed their exit from the competition.

The current crop
In November 2010, in the wake of a fourth successive failure to reach the FIFA World Cup finals, Gustavo Quinteros was appointed national team coach in place of Erwin Platini Sanchez, a former squad-mate of his at USA 1994. The 46-year-old ex-defender, who was born in Argentina and is now a naturalised Bolivian, has since overseen a gradual process of renewal, giving more exposure to youngsters such as Jhasmany Campos, Ricardo Pedriel, Alcides Pena and Rudy Cardozo. However, the team didn't perform as they would have liked at the Copa America 2011, returning home after the first round without a win and Xavier Azkargorta took the reins in July 2012.

The key players
The tip of a spine formed by goalkeeper Carlos Arias, defender Ronald Raldes with striker Marcelo Moreno Martins carrying Bolivia’s goal threat. Currently plying his trade at Gremio of Porto Alegre, Martins showed his credentials in the South Africa 2010 qualifying campaign, hitting seven goals to finish the regional preliminaries as the second-highest scorer.

Best performances in a FIFA competition: FIFA World Cup Uruguay 1930, Brazil 1950, USA 1994 (Group stages)

Argentina Details:
Qualification history
Argentina have reached the FIFA World Cup™ finals on 15 occasions, and few would bet against them making it 16 this time, especially with 2014 hosts Brazil absent from the qualifying competition. Present at the last ten world finals, La Albiceleste have had little problem in progressing to the big stage since the ten-team round-robin group system was introduced. Their only real hiccup came in the South Africa 2010 qualifying campaign, when they flirted with disaster before edging past Peru and Uruguay in their final two games.

FIFA World Cup finals history
Argentina have contested four FIFA World Cup Finals in all, the first of them at the inaugural tournament, Uruguay 1930, when they went down 4-2 to the host nation. Respective contributions from Mario Kempes and Diego Maradona inspired them to the biggest prize in football on home soil in 1978 and again at Mexico 1986, while their last showpiece appearance came at Italy 1990, when they were denied by an Andreas Brehme penalty. Since then they have been unable to progress beyond the quarter-finals.

The current crop
Argentina rang the changes after making their second consecutive last-eight exit to Germany at South Africa 2010, with Sergio Batista taking over from Maradona as coach. Significant friendly wins over Spain, Brazil and Portugal then followed, but after going out as hosts in the quarter-finals of the Copa America 2011, the coach lost his job with Alejandro Sabella named as his successor.

The key players
With the landmark achievement of claiming four consecutive FIFA Ballon d'Ors (2009-2012), Lionel Messi in the undisputed leader of the Argentina national team and a multiple-trophy winner with Barcelona. Breaking all kind of goal-records, La Pulga is now looking to achieve greatness with his country after failing, somewhat surprisingly, to find the back of the net at South Africa 2010. Supporting him will be an all-star cast featuring Carlos Tevez, Javier Mascherano and Angel Di Maria, all of them on top of their game with some of Europe’s leading clubs.

Coach: Alejandro Sabella
Best performances in a FIFA competition: FIFA World Cup Argentina 1978, Mexico 1986 (Winners), FIFA U-20 World Cup Japan 1979, Qatar 1995, Malaysia 1997, Argentina 2001, Netherlands 2005, Canada 2007 (Winners), FIFA Confederations Cup Saudi Arabia 1992 (Winners), Men’s Olympic Football Tournament Athens 2004, Beijing 2008 (Winners)
Former stars: Daniel Passarella, Diego Maradona, Gabriel Batistuta
