Copa America Quarterfinal Predictions

Colombia vs. Panama: Colombia, unbeaten so far, are strong favourites against Panama, who surprised everyone by knocking out the USA. Colombia’s strong form is likely to continue.

Prediction: Colombia wins 3-1.

Uruguay vs. Brazil: The most anticipated clash. Brazil, despite their star power, hasn’t been convincing. Uruguay, known for their grit, will be looking to capitalize on Brazil’s struggles. This is a close call. Brazil’s individual talent might just edge them over the line.
