Saturday, June 22
Venezuela vs Bolivia
- 2019 Copa America Odds: Venezuela -204 / Bolivia +546
So far, Venezuela has forced a couple of 0-0 draws. They drew 0-0 versus Peru in their first Copa America match. In their second Copa America match, they drew 0-0 against Brazil.
Venezuela should dominate Bolivia based on the Bolivian’s 1-3 loss to Peru. However, Venezuela hasn’t scored a goal yet while Bolivia has. The draw looks promising.
2019 Copa America Betting Pick: Draw
Brazil vs Peru
- 2019 Copa America Odds: Brazil -285 / Peru +764
Brazil beat Bolivia 3-0 but couldn’t score a goal versus Venezuela. The Brazilians should have no trouble scoring at least 1 goal against Peru in regulation on Saturday, though.
Peru is a solid squad. They showed that in the 3-1 win over Bolivia. Although it’s tempting to back Brazil on the handicap, Peru should play the Brazilians tight. This figures to end up a 1-0 Brazil win.

Sunday, June 23
Paraguay vs Colombia
- 2019 Copa America Odds: Paraguay +167 / Colombia +162
The odds are tight because Paraguay has been one of the toughest teams at the 2019 Copa America. The Paraguayans drew 2-2 with Qatar in their Matchday 1 game. In their Matchday 2 battle, they drew 0-0 with Argentina.
Paraguay will fight Colombia hard. While Colombia is 2-0 in a couple of matches, including beating Argentina 1-0, neither team in this match will take too many chances. The draw at +219 makes the most sense.
2019 Copa America Betting Pick: Draw
Argentina vs Qatar
- 2019 Copa America Odds: Argentina -357 / Qatar +902
If Argentina has any hopes of moving on, they must dominate Qatar. Argentina and Qatar are at 1-1 in Group B while Paraguay has 2 points and Colombia is running away with the group after gaining 6 points.
Argentina is at -1 ½ -119 on the handicap. That’s the play because if Argentina wants to move to the elimination round, they absolutely must beat Qatar by at least 2 goals.
2019 Copa America Betting Pick: Argentina
Monday, June 24
Uruguay vs Chile
- 2019 Copa America Odds: Uruguay +106 / Chile +254
This is an important Group C matchup because Uruguay has 4 points and Chile has 3 points. Uruguay looked fantastic in the 4-0 victory over Ecuador. They appeared to take a step back in the 2-2 draw versus Japan.
Chile beat Japan 4-0 in their fist Copa America match. The Chileans battle Ecuador on Friday afternoon. They should beat Ecuador by at least a goal. After they do, the odds will shift some. Uruguay could turn into an overlay. They’re already on the cusp at +106. Backing Uruguay to beat Chile by at least a goal is the bet.
2019 Copa America Betting Pick: Uruguay
Japan vs Ecuador
- 2019 Copa America Odds: Japan +268 / Ecuador -104
This could be the top underdog play for Matchday 3 at the 2019 Copa America. Ecuador must battle Chile on Friday afternoon. If Ecuador loses that match, they must then step it up against Japan. The Japanese are a disciplined team that will play Ecuador tight. Also, if the Ecuadorians push too hard, Japan could score a goal or two on the counter.
Japan has a real shot of upsetting Ecuador in regulation on Monday.
