Head-to-head
- Colombia’s first World Cup match was a 2-1 defeat by Uruguay in Chile in 1962.
- That is the only previous occasion the sides have met at a World Cup, and is also Colombia’s only previous meeting with South American opposition.
- In the last 10 years, Uruguay have won six of their eight games against Colombia (D1, L1).
- Colombia’s only win in that sequence was by 4-0 in a World Cup qualifier in Baranquilla in September 2012. The Uruguayans won the return fixture 2-0 in Montevideo a year later.
Colombia
- Los Cafeteros are unbeaten in their last 10 games (W6, D4) since losing 2-0 in Uruguay last September.
- Colombia lost their only only previous World Cup knockout game 2-1 to Cameroon in 1990.
- They have won as many World Cup matches in Brazil (three) as in their previous 13 tournament games combined.
- James Rodriguez has scored in his last five appearances for Colombia, including all three World Cup matches.
- He has scored three goals and assisted two more in 225 minutes in Brazil – which equates to scoring or assisting a goal every 45 minutes.
- Nine of Colombia’s last 11 goals at the World Cup have been scored in the second half of matches.
Uruguay
- Uruguay have not beaten South American opposition in a knockout World Cup match since victory against Brazil at the Maracana in 1950. That match was the de facto final as it was the last game in the final round, with Uruguay needing a win to clinch the title.
- They have scored in each of their last nine World Cup games – the last time they failed to find the net was in a 0-0 draw against France on 11 June 2010.
- La Celeste have lost the last two World Cup games Luis Suarez has missed: 3-2 against Netherlands in 2010 and 3-1 versus Costa Rica in their opening match in Brazil.
