After the retirement of players like Cavani and Suarez, Uruguay's overall condition was somewhat weak. But right now this group is very strong. They have talented players like Nunez, Araujo, Pellistri and Valverde in their squad. And the important thing is that the chemistry between the players is very good. This is why Uruguay performed well in every match of the group stage. Uruguay is expected to win against Brazil as well.
With the current squad of Uruguay, alot of things will pave for greatness, we've come to realized the topping measures and improvement of the country. On a note, these players mentioned have been nothing but great contributions for the country at top level. Uruguay will fight to the very end in the Copa America because they've in possession of strong eligibility to win the major title and relenting is not even an option. Uruguay have amazing players that have taken the mantle and we clearly understand the stats of the country when it comes to these tournaments.
Uruguay journey so far has been very promising, where they managed to sweep the group stage matches with a win, and emerged as group C winners according to predictions. Suarez is still taking part in the Copa America this time, his presence can be a role model for other young players in the dressing room. I think Uruguay deserves to be called the favorite team to win along with Argentina and Brazil, because they have the complete attributes to overcome every challenge.
Uruguay toughest challenge will begin in the quarter-finals, where they will face Brazil, clearly this is a very decisive match. I think whoever comes out as the winner will be able to advance to the final. The semifinals look easier, because they will face Colombia or Panama.
The match between Uruguay and Brazil is very difficult to predict, I think the match will end in a draw, and the winner will be determined through a penalty shootout. On paper Brazil is the favorite team in that match, that doesn't mean underestimating Uruguay, I don't mean to go there. On the other hand, we also understand that Brazil reputation in the Copa this time is not that good.
