Venue factors: 2200 meters altitude, Uzbekistan lacks high-altitude combat experience, with noticeable stamina decline in the second half.

Reason: Overall dominance, Uzbekistan's dense defense makes it difficult to withstand South American flank attacks, Colombia's stable defense is likely to keep a clean sheet.
Secondary score: Colombia 2-1 Uzbekistan
Reason: Uzbekistan's counterattack poses some threat, Shomurodov's role as a pivot might steal a goal.
