5. Argentina’s last Copa América victory over Paraguay was in the semifinals of the 2015 Copa América in Chile when they defeated them 6 goals to 1.
Let’s review the recent performance of both teams ahead of Monday night’s scheduled match:
Argentina: Those led by Lionel Scaloni, who has been questioned by the last results obtained by the national team, is because out of the last five matches, three games have ended in a draw, and only two have been victories, with a cast plagued by great players, That is why against the Guarani team they must show the great collective version of the team that was able to defend the result against a difficult Uruguayan team, to reaffirm themselves as a contender for the title.
Paraguay: The Guarani team coached by Toto Berizzo will have to show a great version of the game, given the second commitment they will have this Monday night against one of the best teams in the continent, who also have one of the best players in the world, Lionel Messi, who has just signed in his last two matches with the national team, great performances added to a great goal from a free kick in the tie against the Chilean national team, so if they want to compete and get into contention to go for a continental title, they must play a great collective game to snatch important points from the Albiceleste team.
