In the first round, Lionel Messi and co. secured a convincing victory over Canada (2-0), followed by breaking the resistance of Chile (1-0). The Argentineans have always found matches against Chile challenging. They lost two consecutive finals in 2015 and 2016. Even now, Chile held them to a draw until Lautaro Martinez’s strike in the 88th minute changed the situation.
Argentina have already qualified from the group, so they can afford to rotate their squad in the third match. Lionel Messi is experiencing some health issues, further motivating Lionel Scaloni to rest his key players.
After the triumph in Qatar, Argentina continue to show excellent results. Their only loss was against Uruguay in the World Cup 2026 qualifiers, with a 0-2 scoreline.
Peru haven’t shown the same level of football they demonstrated in the 2018 World Cup. In two matches at Copa America, Los Incas have not scored a single goal. They started with a lackluster draw against Chile and lost their second match against Canada despite being the better side in the first half.
Historically, Peru have performed well in Copa America. For example, in the five previous editions of the tournament, they took third place twice. However, achieving a similar result this time seems unlikely.
Currently, Peru occupy the last place in their group. They have minimal chances to advance to the next round but will do everything possible to achieve it. Most likely, Argentina will not be highly motivated, which could allow the Peruvians to clinch a victory.
Bet hereSurprisingly, Peru have reached the playoffs at the Copa America in the last ten editions in a row. In four out of the last five instances, they even managed to reach at least the semi-finals.
However, this series is approaching an end. After two rounds, Peru occupy the last place in Group A, and their chances of reaching the quarterfinals are slim. Argentina might have already qualified, but they will aim to extend their successful streak.
Based on this information, our Copa America betting tip is for Argentina to win. They have a balanced and organized squad. Peru, on the other hand, is struggling to create dangerous chances and will most likely lose the game against one of the main favorites of the Copa America.
Argentina are a very experienced team that know how to play correctly and pragmatically. Recently, they have scored a lot in almost every match.
In the previous six matches, they scored 14 goals (an average of 2.33 per game) – a very high figure. Additionally, in the last six head-to-head meetings, they scored 10 goals against Peru (an average of 1.67 per game), which is also a very good result.
Based on this, our Copa America prediction is betting on over 1.5 total goals for Argentina. Even with Leo Messi on the bench, Albiceleste have plenty of quality attackers, such as Lautaro Martinez, Julian Alvarez, and Alejandro Garnacho, the latter of whom has yet to feature. It is also likely that they will score at least once in each half.
