Argentina will hope to maintain their momentum ahead of the knockout phase of Copa America as they face Bolivia in a Group A clash at the Arena Pantanal. Bolivia have disappointed in competition and should struggle against Argentina, who are looking to finish top of the group.
Bolivia suffered a 2-0 defeat to Uruguay in their previous fixture at Copa America. They attempted to frustrate the Uruguayans but collapsed after Jairo Quinteros put through his own net and never looked like getting back into the contest.
Bolivia are the lowest ranked team at Copa America, and have been poor in Brazil, losing all their matches. Their struggles were made worse by several off-field problems and they are now out of the competition.
Cesar Farias’ men go into their final fixture with just one goal scored in Brazil. They have also conceded six goals in three matches in the competition.
Argentina claimed a 1-0 victory over Paraguay last time out at Copa America. They took the lead early in the first half through Alejandro Gomez and were able to hold on for the win.
It was the second straight victory in the competition for La Albiceleste’s and was enough to earn them a berth in the quarter-finals. They are still unbeaten in Brazil and will hope to carry that momentum into the knockout stage.
While Argentina have not been as exciting in attack as they would like, Manager Lionel Scaloni will be pleased with his team’s defensive discipline. They have conceded just one goal in the competition and head into Tuesday’s match with consecutive clean sheets.
