Argentina to win against Chile
Chile are ranked 19th by FIFA and they represent a tough opponent in this fixture. However, they will have a hard time sailing through Argentina in the Copa America opener. Argentina are ranked 8th on the FIFA list and we are backing the hosts to win this given their good record against Chile. Chile have only eight victories against Argentina while Argentina have come out on top 61 times in their history.
Paraguay expect a victory against Bolivia
The fixture between Paraguay is scheduled for 13th June (local time). We are backing Paraguay to get their first win here given that Bolivia have struggled in recent years, winning only two games in their last 28 games. Bolivia have lost five of their last six games (all competitions, including friendlies), while Paraguay have not lost in their last seven games.
Brazil to defeat Venezuela
Brazil go head-to-head with Venezuela on 14th June, the second day of Copa America 2021. Brazil are the clear favourites in this game having not lost a match to Venezuela in the previous eight encounters.

Argentina to win the 2021 Copa America
Argentina have hosted the event nine times since 1916, and this event – jointly hosted woth Colombia – will be their tenth. Argentina have only failed to reach the final on two occasions when they have hosted (1987 and 2011). Moreover, Argentina won six of the nine Copa America tournaments they hosted and we are backing them to bag the trophy again this year. The last trophy for Argentina in the tournament was in 1993, a tournament that was hosted by Ecuador. Additionally, Argentina have made it to four finals in the last six tournaments, albeit, failing to lift the trophy in that time.
Top contenders for the 2021 Copa America golden boot
The Copa America 2021 golden boot is up for grabs and we are tipping a few players to contend for the prestigious individual award. Neymar Jr, Lionel Messi, Lautaro Martinez, Roberto Firmino and Luiz Suarez have been phenomenal for both country and club. We expect them to go all-out to fight for the golden boot as the favourites to claim it this summer.
Which teams will play in the final?
The outright tip for the final is Argentina vs Uruguay – two teams that have made the most appearances in the finals since its creation. Uruguay have 15 trophies while Argentina have 14. The two teams have met in 12 Copa America finals, with Argentina winning only two of them.
