Shortly after the end of the Copa América, we get a remake of the final, where Colombia will try to use its locality to take something from Argentina and achieve quick revenge.
The Cafeteros come from a disappointing draw against the worst team in the qualifiers, Peru. That glaring side from a couple of months ago was nowhere to be seen, so the lack of motivation after losing the final is a matter of concern.
The Albiceleste had another day at the office against Chile with a convincing 3-0 win. The best news is that Julian Alvarez scored his first of the season after a slow start with Atlético Madrid following his move from the Citizens.

Why Bet on Colombia?
The locals have had an excellent run in the qualifiers with three wins, four draws, and no losses. However, now they face an acid test to maintain their unbeaten record.
Colombia sits third in the standings and boasts two wins and three draws in the last five games. They trail the qualifying leaders, who happen to be Argentina, by five points.
Their amazing run in the Copa América came after an impressive unbeaten run following the Qatar World Cup, for which they failed to qualify. Now they seem on track to qualify comfortably for the next big date, but first, they must recover the sensations from before losing the final.
Why Bet on Argentina?
The best team in the world took the loss against Uruguay for the CONMEBOL qualifiers some months ago as a minor slip. Their record is not unblemished anymore, but you forget that minor detail after considering that they come from winning the last three major tournaments they have played.
This generation of Argentina has only one more objective to fulfill, and that is to sweep aside any doubts that they are the best the South American giants have ever produced. For that, they must: lock the first place in the qualifiers and reach the next World Cup in top form and as the major candidate. Winning the Finalissima again would be a great addendum, as well.
Overall, the team has accumulated 18 points in seven rounds and holds a four-point lead over their closest rival.
Final Betting Analysis: Colombia vs. Argentina
The match between Colombia and Argentina promises to be highly engaging, with both teams showing strong recent form.
The final of the CONMEBOL Copa America this summer was not a good game for the neutral but, as is so often the case in big games at major tournaments, was decided in seconds.
Both sides set up well defensively to allow an array of attacking talent to thrive, and that could be the case again here with the attackers stifled by strong defenses.
Colombia has only won one of the last 13 meetings between these two teams, with many ending in stalemates, and Argentina’s strong away form suggests another draw could be on the cards. We’ll go for a 1-1.
Go for a tie at 2.948. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $194.8 for a total payout of $294.8.
