2021 Copa America – Group A Final Matches Tips and Betting Preview

The group phase of the Copa America concludes on Monday night, or the early hours of Tuesday morning for those of us in the UK, when the final matches of Group A are played out to confirm the quarter final line up.

We already know which four sides will make it through to the quarter finals so the only thing to determine is which order they will go through in and therefore who matches up against who in the last eight.

Uruguay vs Paraguay (01.00)

We know that Uruguay and Paraguay will be in the quarter final but this match could determine who plays Brazil in the quarter final and who doesn’t. Uruguay go into this match knowing the need to avoid defeat else they will be playing Brazil. If Paraguay avoid defeat they will finish second in the group.

I’m already on Paraguay to win the tournament so I’m tracking their progress with interest in this group and I would be delighted if this one finishes in a draw which would suit both sides nicely and Paraguay get to avoid Brazil in the quarter final. It has to be said that the draw is a big runner in this match not least because Uruguay haven’t really impressed going forward in the competition yet but I’m not really one for backing contrived draws as they don’t always come in as we saw in the Euros last week. I’m happy to keep my powder dry here.

Bolivia vs Argentina (01.00)

The other match in the group is one in which Argentina will need to win to guarantee winning the group when they go up against a Bolivia side who are already out of the competition after this clash in Cuiaba.

Bolivia have competed in this tournament but they have been outclassed in the main and although they gave their fans hope when they took the lead in their first match against Paraguay but from the moment they surrendered the advantage in that game this has been a long slog from them. Argentina have picked up a couple of wins after a draw to start their tournament but it is hard to argue that they have been convincing. They haven’t. I still expect them to win this match but given they have qualified and their quarter final is on Saturday I would imagine they’ll rest some key players here which could keep the score down somewhat. Argentina are yet to score more than once in a game in this competition but I sense that might change here. I still don’t see them going beyond 3.5 goals though.

Tips

Back Argentina to win and under 3.5 goals for a 3/10 stake at 2.05 with Bet365
