Uruguay – Colombia : Preview & Prediction
Uruguay has been gaining momentum since the start of this Copa America … Celeste did not master the first two days well as they lost to Argentina (0-1) before taking their first point against Chile (1-1). After these two poor performances, the band in Cavani showed a more attractive and more solid face against Bolivia (2-0) and against Paraguay (1-0). The attacking duo Cavani-Suarez have scored all of their team’s goals (+ 1 csc from Bolivia) and Celeste’s strike force should perform again against a Colombian team that has been losing ground for two games. Indeed, Los Cafeteros have just suffered 2 defeats in the last two matches of the group stage against Peru (1-2) and against Brazil (1-2). Colombia started with a success over Ecuador (1-0) and followed by a tasteless draw against Venezuela (0-0). El Tricolor has not won for three meetings and could have difficulty reacting to a selection of Uruguay who has not lost against Colombia in their last 3 duels (3-0, 2-2, 3- 0). Experience should allow Uruguay to better control this first knockout meeting and to consider a qualification thanks to the quality of its workforce which seems more complete and more homogeneous than that of its opponent of the day.
Uruguay have been undefeated for 3 games against Colombia (2 wins and 1 draw).
Colombia has not won since 3 games (1 draw and 2 losses).
Uruguay are undefeated for 3 matches (2 wins and 1 draw).
The defense of the Celeste has not taken a goal for two meetings.
El Tricolor has just suffered 2 failures ahead of Peru and Brazil.
10 years ago to the day Uruguay sign a final victory in the Copa America 2011 in Argentina … The Celeste should have desires for a new title. This requires a victory in regulation time or after.
