Brazil and Colombia are set to face off in a pivotal Copa America Group D match this Tuesday in California. This heavyweight clash will determine the group’s leader, with both teams displaying impressive form.
Colombia, having already secured their spot in the next round, only need a draw to finish first. Brazil, sitting on four points, will advance with at least a draw. However, they’re unlikely to face elimination, as Costa Rica would need a substantial goal difference swing to overtake them.
Both teams to score seems a strong bet Brazil enter as favourites but face a Colombian team in stellar form. Colombia has secured victories in their last 10 matches, including a 2-1 win against Brazil, and they remain unbeaten in their last 25 games dating back to early 2022.
Given that both teams have scored in four of Brazil’s last five matches, and considering Brazil’s 12 goals in their last six games, betting on both teams to score appears promising.
Similarly, Colombia has found the net in three of their last five matches, totalling 17 goals in their last six outings.
While Brazil may feel more pressure to secure a win, Colombia’s unbeaten streak presents a formidable challenge. Predicting a 2-1 victory for Colombia, led by Néstor Lorenzo, could be a worthwhile risk.
Luis Diaz, Liverpool’s forward and key player for Colombia, has already netted two goals and an assist in the tournament and is likely to take any penalties. He’s a strong candidate for scoring at any time during the match.
Betting tip – Diaz anytime goal at 4/1
