Two-time Olympic men's football champions Argentina headed into this year's campaign understandably confident. On paper they have one of the strongest squads in the entire tournament, and have won gold in two of its last three editions. However, they were stunned by Portugal 2-0 in their first match, and only just scraped a 2-1 win over Algeria last time out. That means heading into their final match of the group stages, they must beat Honduras to progress.

Honduras' campaign has rather mirrored Argentina's so far: they opened their campaign with a 3-2 win over Algeria, only to suffer a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Portugal last time out. However, crucially the Central American side have a superior goal difference than Argentina, meaning a draw against Argentina would be enough to see them into the next round -- at the expense of the tournament contenders. It should certainly be a hotly-fought contest.
