Romero would have been one of the first names on the team sheet following a run of impressive performances for Tottenham Hotspur, but the 24-year-old has missed a few games in recent weeks due to a hamstring injury. Paredes and De Paul will be crucial in midfield but Argentina will miss the injured Giovani Lo Celso, whom Scaloni said was"irreplaceable".
