This Saturday (13), Canada and Uruguay face off in the fight for third place in the Copa América. The match will take place at the Bank of America Stadium, in North Carolina, United States, at 9:00 p.m. (Brasilia time).

HOW CANADA ARRIVES

Canada comes into the game after having a great Copa America, reaching the semi-finals and losing only to the current champion of the competition and the world, Argentina, losing twice to El Hermanos throughout the competition.

HOW TO GET TO URUGUAY

Uruguay had a good Copa America, winning all the games in the group stage and consolidating themselves as the team with the best campaign in the first phase, eliminating Brazil on penalties in the quarter-finals, but ended up playing a very bad game against Colombia in the semi-finals, with one more player throughout the second half, but they ended up being eliminated 1-0.

RETROSPECTION

Canada and Uruguay have only met twice, and both results resulted in a Celeste victory, the most recent being a friendly in 2022 with a 2-0 victory for Uruguay.

PREDICTION – CANADA X URUGUAY

“Even though Canada was the sensation of this edition of the Copa América, Uruguay was on a roll and ended up playing a bad game against Colombia, where they wasted clear chances and could have come out on top. Canada, on the other hand, could play a counter-attacking game, expecting a mistake from the Uruguayan team, but it will be difficult for the Canadians to break through Celeste’s defense.

Guess: Canada 0x2 Uruguay
