Copa América 2024: Matchday 3 Preview

USMNT

The group stage of the Copa América is ending. There are matches between direct rivals for the available spots, such as Canada vs. Chile and Mexico vs. Ecuador, which promise to be exciting.

The Ecuadorians, with at least one point, have a ticket to the quarterfinals, so the Mexicans are required to show their best side because, in the United States, they have proven to be locals.

And speaking of the home team, the Americans are obliged to beat Uruguay to think of advancing to the next round. Argentina, who have already qualified, will have an easier match, as they will face an almost-eliminated Peru.

With their six points, the Argentine National Team has already qualified for the next round. However, they have not shown their best footballing performance so far. The team led by Lionel Messi has won its last seven matches and it should be noted that in the Copa América, it has not conceded any goals in 180 minutes. Precisely, Messi is in cotton wool and, likely, he will not play.

Peru’s team is an absolute disaster, they have only scored one point in the Copa América, so they are continuing the horror they are experiencing in the Qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, where they are last with two points out of 18. They have not won an official match since June 5, 2022 , that is, they have nine games without a win.

In addition, it has not scored a goal in this tournament and has only one (against El Salvador) in its last four matches. It needs to win and hope for a draw or a win by Chile in the game against Canada, and the goal difference would come into play.

Canada pulled off a surprise last week with a 1-0 win over Peru and moved up to second place in Group A. Striker Jonathan David scored the only goal of the match that has the team dreaming of a historic qualification to the quarterfinals in its first Copa América, which would demonstrate the growth of soccer in that country and that it has the tools to make a good presentation in the 2026 World Cup, where they will be the hosts.

On the other hand, Chile has been disappointing. Although they have improved with the arrival of Ricardo Gareca, the team’s level is still very low. They drew goalless with Peru and lost 1-0 to Argentina. They need to win to advance, and for that , they must do something they have not been able to do in the whole tournament: score goals. The record favors the Roja with two wins, one draw, and one loss in four games, all friendly matches, but played in the 80s and 90s.

Mexico’s National Team is going through a disappointing moment, despite its debut victory over Jamaica. They lost 1-0 against Venezuela, showing many problems when it comes to finishing (missed a penalty), despite having Santiago Giménez and Julián Quiñones on offense. The Tri comes to this match with the obligation to beat Ecuador, because a draw qualifies their rival.

The young Ecuadorian generation is one tie away from reaching the quarterfinals of the Copa América, thanks to the defeat suffered by Mexico and because they were able to beat Jamaica 3-1. Kendry Páez is stepping up as the star of this team, and Enner Valencia completed his suspension and will be able to lead the attack. This country has won three of the last five matches against the Mexicans.

The United States is the host of the Copa América and the story was looking good with its first win over Bolivia, but against Panama, it played decidedly poorly and ended up surprisingly losing 2-1, so this match against Uruguay is essential to stay alive in the tournament. The USMNT has won only one of its last four matches and has defeated Uruguay once in its history .

Uruguay has been the best-performing team in the Copa América, taking all six points, scoring eight goals, and conceding only one. However, it is worth mentioning that they faced lesser rivals such as Panama and Bolivia. They have already secured their qualification to the quarterfinals and only a massive catastrophe would take them out of first place. Darwin Núñez has seven consecutive games scoring with the Charrúa team.

Estados Unidos vs. Uruguay Betting Pick: Uruguay
