Copa America 2024 Prediction Thread

[BABY SHOES]

Let's not be surprised that the Argentina team, most of us believe to be champions of Copa America might be kicked out the same way Brazil did.
We saw the match surprises that happened in the Euro tournament, Copa America is not far from experiencing it also. We are shocked by Brazil's elimination by Uruguay, another shocking surprise can still happen before the end of Copa America League. Argentina is facing Canada in 2 days. Let's see how the match ends in any of the team favors

Against Canada, who we met before in the group stage, I don't think Argentina will lose again. It won't be a surprise that Argentina will qualify for the final.

Well... Brazil is eliminated because this is the worst squad for the national team they always fail in any tournament and it can reach the final in recent years so I think the surprise will be in the final which is likely to meet Argentina vs Uruguay then this is where the surprise will be seen or still Argentina will win.

To me nothing is shocking here because Uruguay isn't a small team nation both in the past and present, them wining this current Brazilian is isn't something to get shocked about

I actually believe that Uruguay are in better shape than Argentina in this Copa America and they should win if they meet each other in the final. I also cannot count out Columbia because they also play great football , by creating a lot of scoring chances ( where Argentina really doesn't shine ) so I think whoever faces Argentina in the finals , they have a great chance to win against them.

I also cannot remember a team other than Spain to win ( Euro , World Cup and then Euro again ) so if Argentina goes Copa America , World Cup and now Copa America again that will really place them among legends for sure.

[Out of mind]

Canada vs Argentina In this match we can easily confirm that next season's Copa champion team Argentina, is very strong this season too, and they are going to reach the final by playing the semi-final against Canada. Argentina team will have a strong attack against Canada, and they will qualify for the final match. Moreover, according to the odds of different bookmakers, the rating is very low in favor of Argentina, it is possible to win if you bet on Argentina, while Canada is rated many times higher.
Match odds
Argentina -- @1.37
Draw        --- @4.96
Canada    -- @10.6

Brazil, one of the strongest teams in the Copa America, has already been eliminated from the quarter finals, now everyone is waiting for Argentina's match to see how Argentina fares against Canada. Considering the opponent, Argentina is a weaker team than Argentina, so Argentina will definitely be the favorite before the start of this match. Argentina may not have much trouble to overcome this obstacle against Canada. If Argentina can get past their quarter-final hurdle, they will face some tougher opponents in the semi-finals. In the last Copa America we saw Brazil and Argentina finally play in the finals but this season maybe Argentina will be the finalist and I would put Uruguay as one of the favorites along with Argentina.

Of course, Argentina should be kept as the most favorite with star players like Messi and he can see his best game anytime. Although he didn't play well throughout the Copa America, he might get to see his true potential against Canada. But I think Messi and Martinez can be a high challenge for the Canadian team and Canada coach Jesse Marsh will set different goals to stop them. Argentina team has been performing relatively well in high voltage matches like in the past and I think Argentina can have a good game and win against Canada. But the Canadian team is also very strong and they have performed well to come this far and are very much ready for the finals. Canada coach already said in his statement that they are very much ready to beat Argentina team and they want to beat Argentina by playing the best game of their life.

Although Brazil is strong, we have not seen any remarkable performances from them in this year's Copa America. They are strong only on paper, which is evident in their performance on the field.

Tomorrow we may witness another thrilling moment. Argentina, the current champions of the Copa America, will face Canada tomorrow in the first semi-final. Because Argentina team is strong, everyone is predicting that Argentina will win, even everyone considers this team as the favorite. Furthermore, Argentina and Canada will have the opportunity to face each other twice in this year's Copa America with tomorrow's match. It won't be a surprise if Argentina wins this match as they have beaten Canada in a match before.

I would put Uruguay as one of the favorites along with Argentina.

For that, wait for the second semi-final match and watch that match. I don't think Uruguay will make it to the final as they will face strong Colombia in their semi-final match. Just because they beat Brazil in the quarter-finals doesn't mean they're too strong to beat. I don't think like you I think maybe Colombia will reach the final.

Argentina still holds the status as the most favored team to win the Copa America this time based on their performance so far and in terms of the quality of the remaining team, they are also one of the strongest teams. Argentina and Canada met again for the second time in this competition, previously they were in the same group and Argentina managed to dominate Canada. The same result will probably be repeated in the semifinals, Argentina is favored to qualify for the final easily.

Brazil failure to qualify for the semifinals seemed to confirm Ronaldinho statement that the squad prepared by Dorival Junior was one of the worst squads in their history. Brazil were eliminated in a painful way, they were unable to overcome Uruguay who played with 10 players in normal time, as a result they were eliminated after going through a penalty shootout. Brazil drastically declining performance no longer reflects their identity as a strong team and also as the owner of the most World Cup titles, the era of the Brazilian team which was very strong in its beautiful game is starting to fade slowly.

They should be strong, but unfortunately they are too selfish which means they cannot perform optimally in the Copa America this time. In the past, when Brazil was still being coached, Tite prioritized collective play. Only Neymar and Vinicius displayed individual skills. The rest is more dominant as a collective game. In the 2021 Copa America, when they were defeated by Argentina, they were just unlucky because they created many opportunities. However, because of the toughness of goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, he thwarted Brazil's chances.
However, what is happening now is that Brazilian players prioritize individual play and tend to be selfish. The lack of cooperation makes Brazil's game monotonous and their playing style easy to predict.

This is very different from Argentina. They are now more prominent in their collective play, supported by the individual abilities of captains Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria who have above average individual abilities. The results show that Argentina played the most entertaining game and of course very strong. I predict they can beat Canada in the semifinals easily, if they are in the top match it is not impossible that they can win the Copa America trophy again in a row.

Brazil is not having a good time at the moment. Apart from being regularly defeated in big tournaments, they are also defeated in various friendly matches. It is difficult for Brazil fans to accept such a performance from their team. I think Brazil have good quality players but lack a good quality manager in their team.

Is obvious the lapses Brazil is currently having is as a result of inexperienced coach because there is no any other way we can picture were there poor performances is coming from if not from there coach because when we talk about players Brazil is known to be one of the countries that has the highest players, and like you said even there defense line is very strong but what always surprises me is that even with all this quality players they cannot still utilize it very well, imagine as big as Brazil they only won one match out of three matches they played on there group, perhaps they are actually supposed to win all there matches because there was no serious challenge against them on the group and now they have been kicked out from the league.

Brazil work is over in the Copa America, they will bear all the mistakes that resulted in having to go home early from this tournament. The coach became the center of fans' anger because he chose players who were unable to protect Brazil big name. Dorival Junior position will be shaken due to shocks coming from various angles due to his failure to handle Brazil. Overall Brazil's game was very bad in this tournament, disappointment from the Legends emerged before the competition started after seeing the official squad released. Learning from experience is very necessary, Brazil this time was very bad and worse than imagined, facing a team that played with 10 players they were unable to win.

It is going to be an easy win for Argentina tonight as Canada is not match for them. By their past meetings, Argentina won them on clean sheets as it seems Canada is yet to figure out how to score Argentina. Even in their group A matches, Argentina still defeated them 2-0 that made them came out second in the group. The Canadian team this year does not seem to have what it takes to defeat the world champions. They were almost eliminated by Venezuela if not that they got lucky and the match entered penalty which they were able to win.

I think the surprise will be in the final which is likely to meet Argentina vs Uruguay then this is where the surprise will be seen or still Argentina will win.

It is still uncertain who the winners will be but there is high chance the final will be between Argentina and Uruguay, another strong team in this year's competition. Such a final can swing either way because Uruguay can subdue Argentina.

It's really shameful to see Brazil can't beat these teams, I see that Brazil doesn't lack of players, they actually have many players who play in top teams and top leagues. Dorival Junior is deserve to be shaken, he didn't contribute a lot even though he's already a veteran manager in Brazil first league.

They should bring back Tite to manage Brazil senior team, recently he's successful for temporary bring Flamengo to top 1 position.

Yes you are right we did not give as much as we expected from Brazil team. I don't know if it is the failure of the coach of the Brazilian team or the failure of the players of the Brazilian team. Before the Brazil team reached the quarter-finals, everyone was hopeful that Vinicius Jr. could do something for Brazil. But no he failed too, he was yellow carded in three consecutive matches and did not qualify for the quarter final match which was a big blow for Brazil. Brazil team players play very well in various clubs or league level but when they come to the national team it becomes a situation where the tail is folded.

As long as the players of the Brazilian team didn't perform well, the Brazilian team will continue to disappoint their fans like this. Maybe they need a well-organized and experienced coach who can make this Brazil team look formidable again.

Brazil, one of the strongest teams in the Copa America, has already been eliminated from the quarter finals, now everyone is waiting for Argentina's match to see how Argentina fares against Canada. Considering the opponent, Argentina is a weaker team than Argentina, so Argentina will definitely be the favorite before the start of this match. Argentina may not have much trouble to overcome this obstacle against Canada.

Canada has a trust issue to their performance when they meet argentina. The trust issue comes after Argentina destroyed them in the group stage. That result will overshadow them in the semi final against Argentina. I don't think Canada has a chance to beat Argentina; Moreover, the stats show how dominant Argentina was in the group stage against Canada.
So, I think this will be an easy game for Argentina. But, I still expect Canada to make Argentina struggle by changing their strategy. And, to support my argument, I provide the statistic from the last meeting between Canada and Argentina.



See, how Argentina dominated Canada in the previous meeting. The only way for Canada to get a chance to qualify for the final is to change its strategy. Canada played so badly when they used 4-4-2. I hope Jesse March continues to use 4-2-3-1 because it really fits Canada's style.
But, I'm still rooting for Argentina to win. Canada may change its strategy, but Argentina's quality is still superior to Canada. And last, it won't be easy for Argentina. This is because Jesse March learned from the result in the first group stage meeting.

Canada has only one win and the last draw with Venzuela 1-1 ended in penalties while Canada was lucky to qualify by winning.
It's like going back to the original Argentina vs Canada match but it's true the result will remain the same that's my current prediction about the semi-final match whereas if Canada can hold the draw until penalties maybe they will test their luck again.

Canada is underdog. On paper, Argentina will win this match and take a ticket to the final round, but on the field, conditions like that can change, even though the percentage is small for this to happen.
Argentina must avoid the penalty shootout because if that happens, maybe luck will be on Canada's side even though Martinez is known to be good at penalty shootouts.

I still can't believe that Brazil that was doing very well during the time of Kaka, Ronaldinho, and Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima are now finding it difficult to win matches and what amazes me is that they have a very nice squad but yet they are not still performing well because Vinicius Jr, Endrick, Rodrygo, Raphinha, Lucas Paquetá are all quality players that the Brazilian team have and if not for a knee injury that Neymar Jr has he would have featured in the tournament so these are great players that should have elevated the Brazilian team but nothing is being done at all. May be it looks like more of a coach challenge but if the National finds the team coach not fit enough for the team they should employ the Service of another coach to lead the team to victories like they do in the old times like I just miss the Brazilian pattern of play those days of Ronaldinho, wish they can rebuild the team and become more better again.

PSG had Messi, Neymar and Mbappe among other good players and they did not win anything except French Ligue 1 as usual. Brazil is not different from them at all and having a bunch of top players will not guarantee anything for a team and with no surprises at all, Brazil was kicked from Copa America since the Quarter-final and I think they advanced good regarding their bad performance since I was waiting for them to impress us by leaving in the group stage...
Now the road is opened for Argentina unless they lose by a surprising goal at the end of the game or by penalties.

Even though this is a semifinal match, of course Argentina is still at a better level than Canada. Also, in their match in Group A, Argentina also managed to beat Canada with a score of 2-0 and thus, even though this is a semifinal match, I believe Argentina still has a very good chance of winning. Indeed, in football anything can happen, because Brazil was also eliminated at this moment, so Argentina also needs to remain alert even though Argentina has been confirmed to win against Canada.

Apart from that, I am sure that Argentina will continue to make its best efforts, because Argentina also at this moment has the status of defending Copa America champion. Therefore, even though Argentina only plays against Canada in this semifinal round, I am sure Argentina will still play its best players, of course to ensure they qualify for the final round in the regular 90 minutes.

The decline of the Brazilian national team began after the elimination by France in the 2006 World Cup, when the generation that was world champion in 2002 ended and a new phase began with a new coach and a new squad, a squad that was the basis for the 2010 World Cup...

I define one thing as the main culprit for all of Brazil's problems: CBF... from the poor choice of coaches (Mano Menezes and Dunga) to the terrible habit of always scheduling friendlies for the Brazilian national team against small teams with no world standing... the entire construction of the squad for a 4-year effort aimed at the World Cup was always hampered by stubborn coaches with no playing style... What is happening today is just the result of what was done in the past to create a winning team, in other words: nothing....

Today's players are completely mediocre compared to the gold standard that the Brazilian national team has always been, they are hoping for Vini Junior, Militão, Paquetá... the last outstanding player on the Brazilian national team It's Neymar, the rest are just ordinary players. I really miss when the Brazilian team scared the opponents.
