I think Brazil, name is on the trophy this year, they have the best mix of talents. The defence is good, the GK rock solid, creative midfield & Firmino + G Jesus is a nice attack.

Argentina are a good team but they’re not as fluent.

Most talented is not the winner every time. Croatia went to the final of World Cup with an average team. Brazil may be the most valuable squad among all Copa America teams but that doesn't make them the automatic winner.
I have seen all four quarter finals and in my opinion Argentina played the best football among all 4 teams that reached semis. Argentina squad isn't perfect at all, they lack the required co-ordination, their talisman isn't in his best form but most importantly of all, they have required passion to win the cup. They look like completely different in quarterfinal in contrast to group stages. So sometimes passion plays upper-hand as compared to skills and can create wonders. I do believe we will see same teams in finals for thrice in a row but final outcome could be different this time.

Well, the way is open now. Watched the game and Uruguay should really have won. Missed the very first penalty in the kickout, and bye bye Suarez and Co. Peruvians happy as hell. Looks like the road to an Argentina final seems even better than ever... Peru are horrendous to watch, but credit to keeping their nerve till the shootout.

I was just mentioning how a team does well after getting past a difficult group stage. I suppose it was time for a Messi medal at long last.

Peru just did not deserve the win. Uruguay was the better team and they played very well. All the time they were attacking. Their bad luck that all the goals they scored end up with offside.

I have already said that no one can predict every match that occurs. And Peru has good luck for this competition and it's worth going to the next stage. It is feasible or inappropriate, of course we cannot say because what happens in the field is reality.

I would agree with you that Brazil has a better team.
However, it is only one game between Brazil and Argentina and everything is possible. Maybe one detail can make Argentina win that. A Messi's foul or a mistake in Brazil's defence. I wouldn't be so sure that Brazil is going to win that.

Moreover, Brazil has other advantages because this tournament takes place in Brazil. So by acting as a host, Brazil has a much better atmosphere and again if we look at head to head from both teams I personally believe Brazil will win the match, but I don't think there will be many goals created in this match.

@Trofo, great, tell me your predictions and I'll go the opposite;) Maybe I'll just lock my picks on the SF, so I can see your picks, then make bets against it Wink

The funny thing is that this is such a short tourney too, so it's really hard to say how we'd have performed over the long term. I do remember the early frontrunners in the EPL pool falling away towards the end of the season.

Can't believe I didn't even predict ONE draw though.

I'm so disappointed that Uruguay got eliminated because it was my favorite team in this tournament. They scored 3 goals tonight, but all these goals been scored from offside and referee cancelled it. And referee decisions was absolutely right. Peru reaching semifinals probably is the biggest surprise in this tournament

Peru reached semi, it's not a surprise I think. Peru made it against Uruguay, that's the surprise for me.

A thrilled match is knocking at the door. In Copa, Brazil vs Argentina is very rare. Here is the result of last three meets in Copa America.

1999 Semi Final
Brazil vs Argentina- 2:1
Although Argentina took an early lead, Brazil have had the last laugh. Both the team was full of legend like Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Riquelme.

2004 Final
Brazil vs Argentina- 2(4):2(2)
It was more thrilled, the match was a drawn of 2:2, Argentina has scored at 87th minute but failed to defend. At the end, Brazil won with tie breakers.

2007 Final
Brazil vs Argentina- 3:0
Even though Argentina was full of famous player like Riquelme, Messi, Veron, Tevez, Mascerano, they failed to have a competitive match. A almost total young team of Brazil made it.

History and performance, both are in favor of Brazil, I think this time, Brazil will win once again.

So, Uruguay is out of the Copa as well. Damn, in this competition almost every game goes in opposite direction from my predictions. Good thing the game was played earlier than I thought. I just went to betting site to place the bet and found out that Peru won on penalties. I was sure Uruguay is winning this.

If I post any more tips related to this competition you just pick opposite and have a sure money Grin

This could be another Chile's trophy, as I expect them to make to the final and face either Brazil or Argentinal (preferably), Third time could be a charm for Messi and his compatriots.

Unfortunately no one from the pool pick a draw, or even peru to win. We are down to the last four games now, with harder choices to make Cheesy

Cool, I got one exact score, but then ended up on 3 points like many of you guys. Guess I should be glad I clambered up 2 spots. Still 6 points off the pace with only 5 games left. Need 2 more exact scores just to get even!

But how about that eh? Damn Chile still knows how to progress. Poor Higuita now has to keep his promise and cut off his beautiful mullet though.

You know what would be funny? Another Chile Argentina final hahaha.

This time Argentina will not show any mercy. By the way, I doubt Chile will win against Uruguay. Uruguay is playing better football in this tournament.

Just have finished the match Between Argentina vs Venezuela. The score was Argentina 2: 0 Venezuela. Opps my prediction was the score will 2:1. But did not😂😂 . But Argentina won the match 🥰🥰

And I was very close too. My prediction was 0 - 3 for Argentina. Argentina could score few more goals. They missed some very easy chances. By the way, I am glad that in the other match (Colombia vs Chile), I picked a draw and it was correct just missed the correct score. My pick was 1 - 1.

Anyway, for Uruguay vs Peru, I am going for Uruguay.

Oh look! The top two guys at the CL pool last season are at the bottom two of this pool. Wtf happened? This is embarassing. Lololol. Cheesy

I didn’t expect to do that well in this pool. Obviously everybody knows Brazil & Argentina have great players but my knowledge of some of the other South American teams is minimal. For example Peru, Venezuela etc who has a fucking clue Cheesy

I’m much better in the PL pool.

That just confirms my belief that I (and probably most of you) should never bet on games/sports you don't actively watch. I think I lost all my bets on Copa America and would have been much better of if I limited myself to U21 Euro and Tennis.

I also was confident that Argentina will pass Venezuela, I even managed to get correct score. But damn it, I forgot to leave prediction on Chile - Colombia game. I lost in time and thought that game will be played today. Nevermind, because I would have predicted Chile win and would get 0 points for that Cheesy

.
Today I expect easy win of Uruguay against Peru.
