The tactical read
Uzbekistan typically set up in 3-4-2-1 and make their first change around minute 50 - roughly 5 substitutions per game. Expect the first-sub window around then, earlier if they're chasing the game.
Over the last 3 matches, the same shape held up in 3 of them. The quickest hook came at 46' away at Portugal; the longest wait stretched to 59' away at Congo DR.
Results have gone against them lately (0-0-3 from the last 3) - under pressure, managers often get more reactive with team news and substitutions than their season-long averages suggest.
