Take a look at the latest odds for Player of the Match as Uruguay get their World Cup campaign underway against Saudi Arabia on Monday night.
Uruguay's preparations have been hampered by paperwork issues leading to their planned flight from Mexico to Texas being cancelled and the next flight being delayed, forcing a delayed arrival ahead of their World Cup opener.
Marcelo Bielsa will be looking for a professional job against Saudi Arabia ahead of their even more straightforward tie against Cape Verde, with their final group game against Spain likely deciding the group winner.
Only three of the first 12 Player of the Match awards have gone to players who failed to find the net. First was Ismael Kone for Canada in their 1-1 draw with Bosnia and Herzegovina before Mahmud Abunada took the award for his display in goal during Qatar's 1-1 draw with Switzerland. Yan Diomande was the third after impressing for the Ivory Coast in their dramatic win over Ecuador.
As such it's no surprise to see Darwin Nunez favourite, with the former Liverpool man Uruguay's primary goal threat. Real Madrid's Federico Valverde also shoulders some of the goalscoring burden in taking penalties and free-kicks, and the skipper will be leaned up for La Celeste's World Cup ambitions.
Odds will display when market is available.
