Why Bet on Brazil?
Brazil had a draw on their face match when they met Costa Rica but came to beat down Paraguay with a 4-1 score on Friday afternoon, establishing second place.
Their performance against the Ticos set the alarm as their poor attacking display was seen as a possible prelude to another massive flop. Remember that, the last time the Copa América was played in American territory, they didn’t even reach the knockout stage.
However, steam-rolling Paraguay got them back on track, and a win against Colombia will give them the lead.
Why Bet on Colombia?
Colombia is coming into this match as the top team on the board after beating Paraguay with a 2 – 1 score and then coming to beat Costa Rica with a 3 – 0.
The Cafeteros have been pretty solid in the CONMEBOL Qualifiers and are the only undefeated team. Their good run has them escalating many positions in the FIFA Ranking and establishing themselves as an Underdog contender to lift the cup. This team is far from its best version name-wise, at least comparing them with their remarkable 2014 squad. However, as a team, they are working better than ever.
Either way, beating Brazil is always easier said than done, but there is no doubt that it would confirm them as a force to be reckoned with.
Final Betting Analysis: Brazil vs. Colombia
The odds have been awful with Colombia, placing them as a sub-par team in front of the South American giants, even after they beat them recently for the CONMEBOL Qualifiers. Either way, we are sure this match will be a true test for the Canarinha, and they should be careful.
However, we know the attacking power of both squads and are sure that the Cafeteros understand that any mistake could leave them in a bad position and make them lose the first place.
We believe a draw is the likeliest outcome and go for a 1-1.
Go for a draw at 3.80. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $280 for a total payout of $380.
