There is all to play for in Group A of the Copa America as all three team below Argentina still have a chance of progressing to the knockout stage of the competition.

The match between Canada and Chile will be played on the 29th of June at Inter&Co Stadium, Orlando, Florida. Canada are currently second in the group on 3 points with Chile one place below them on 1 point.

Canada come into the match having picked up a vital 1-0 win over Peru in their most recent outing at the 2024 Copa America.

With the score 0-0 at halftime, Peru had a player sent off in the 59th minute and Canada took full advantage of the extra player to score the winning goal in the 74th minute.

The victory over Peru was the first win in 4 matches in all competitions for Canada. They lost their opening group game of the Copa America 2-0 to Argentina and suffered a 4-0 loss in a friendly against Netherlands. Canada did manage to hold France to a 0-0 draw in a friendly prior to this tournament.

Statistics show Canada have failed to score a goal in 3 of their last 4 fixtures in all competitions. Their most recent major tournament appearance was at the 2022 World Cup and Canada lost all 3 of their group games, including a 4-1 loss against Croatia.

Chile make the trip to the Inter&Co Stadium on the back of a narrow 1-0 loss to Argentina in Group A.

Chile were close to taking a point from the match but Argentina struck in the 88th minute to leave Chile with nothing for their efforts.

The defeat to Argentina means Chile are undefeated in 3 of their 5 most recent fixtures in all competitions. There were convincing wins over Paraguay and Albania in friendly matches plus a 0-0 draw with Peru in their first 2024 Copa America group games.

Trends show Chile were scoring plenty of goals prior to the 2024 Copa America and netted 8 goals in 3 friendlies. However, they have struggled in recent Copa America games and have failed to win any of their last 5 matches in the competition.

Team news and Canada are likely to go with the same starting XI from the game against Peru. That means Cyle Larin and Jonathan David will play in attack with support out wide from Alphonso Davies and Liam Millar.

Chile could also stick to the same team from their previous fixture against Argentina. Eduardo Vargas started up-front with the experienced Alexis Sanchez operating behind the striker.

Chile need to win this match to have any chance of progressing and that should mean an attacking approach to the game.

Canada know a point is likely to be enough for them but if they sit back and allow Chile onto them, it could be a long night.

Our algorithm suggests we could see a lot of goals for Chile in this game and our prediction is for Chile to win this match comfortably without conceding.
