Copa America: Uruguay vs. Bolivia Preview
Uruguay
Uruguay aims to maintain their top spot in Group C as they take on Bolivia at MetLife Stadium. La Celeste delivered an impressive performance in their 3-1 victory over Panama, with Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez opening his goal-scoring account after a few missed opportunities. Coach Marcelo Bielsa is expected to stick with the same lineup that secured the win against Panama, assuming there are no new injury concerns. Veteran striker Luis Suarez is anticipated to make an appearance in the second group game.
Bolivia
Bolivia, on the other hand, struggled against the tournament hosts, USA, at AT&T Stadium, and they face another challenging match against Uruguay, who created several clear scoring opportunities in their previous game. As the underdogs in East Rutherford, Bolivia will find it tough to secure a win. Additionally, players Justiniano, Villamil, Haquin, and Sagredo are each one yellow card away from suspension.
Prediction
Given the circumstances and current form, a routine home win for Uruguay is expected. We predict a 3-0 victory for La Celeste.
