USA, Uruguay, in 2-Team Horse Race to Win Group C

Group C essentially is a race to the finish between Uruguay and the hosts, the Americans. Both

sides are heavy favorites to advance from this group but who will finish on top. The runner-up

here, will likely get powerhouse Brazil in the knockout stage. And is there any chance one of

the other two can pull off the major upset? We’ll break things down in Group C.

Uruguay -160 (Rank: #15)

Uruguay has struggled in recent tournaments, bowing out in the quarters at the 2021 Copa, and

not getting out of the group stage at the 2022 World Cup. But this is still one of the most skilled

and dangerous nations in the world. Darwin Nunez and Luis Suarez are menacing up front, and

Manchester United winger Facundo Pellistri could give defenses a major headache. Uruguay

has eight wins, three draws and just one loss since that disappointment in Qatar and will try to

prove their better than what we saw. If Uruguay can take this group, they could make a deep

run in what is likely Suarez’s last Copa.

USA +150 (Rank: #11)

The U.S. has home field advantage but is coming off an embarrassing 5-1 shallacking by

Colombia. Many feel this is a dress rehearsal for the 2026 World Cup and there is added

pressure for a good showing. Captain Christian Pulisic is a global star and has a better

supporting cast around him, perhaps the best in some time. There are still question marks on

the backend, which Colombia exposed. The good news is the Americans should advance out of

this group. The bad news is, they’ll likely face Brazil or Colombia in the quarters.

Panama +2000 (Rank: #45)

Panama were a surprise runner-up at last year’s Gold Cup after upsetting the U.S. in the semi

final. Unfortunately, Panama lacks scoring. In June, they lost to Mexico in Nations League play

and could not score despite 18 shots. They likely won’t pose much of a threat against the top

two sides, but can leave with some confidence with a result against Bolivia.

Bolivia +2200 (Rank: #85)

Bolivia is the lowest ranked team at Copa America and shouldn’t have much succes at this

tournament. Their all-time leading scorer, Marcelo Martins Moreno retired earlier this year and

five others are not playing due to injury or hanging up their cleats. Bolivia has lost eight of the

last ten matches including five of six World Cup qualifiers and have been outscored 20-8 in that

stretch. They could be the team that allows the most goals at Copa.
