Preview
Brazil takes on Colombia in their next Copa America 2021 as they aim to continue their winning start to the campaign.
Seleção picked up successive wins against Venezuela 4-0 and Peru 3-0 in their first 2 matches. And would look to keep the consistency going as they prepare for the knockouts.
The likes of Neymar, Richarlison have put in good shifts as Brazil look to go the distance.
Colombia, on the other hand are 2nd in the points table with 4 points to their name.
After a 1-0 win against Ecuador, a goalless draw against Venezuela followed by a loss against Peru has ensured dropped points.
Hence, Colombia needs to get back to winning ways with this contest.
We expect a closely fought contest between the two sides. The last time these two teams played, it was a friendly match in 2019 which finished 2-2.
Casemiro and Neymar’s goals cancelled Muriel’s brace to earn the draw.
