My advice to you is to forget about looking at the country ranks. It is not very accurate and teams go up or down depending on a range of factors. Instead, you should focus on what the game ratings are for your team and your opponent's team.
You would know your team better than what we can advise you on, but from the look at the ratings of your last 2 games (I am just assuming you played your best lineup), it would be no match against the top team in your conference. Unless you bring in some serious firepower, I would recommend tanking it and build up enthusiasm for future games which you have more of a chance to win.
