Group A is the most lopsided table at Copa America, based on betting odds. Argentina, ranked<\/p>\n\n\n\n
number one in the world, are the overwhelming favorites to win the group and the tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But could there be the possibility of an upset? We\u2019ll explore the other three team\u2019s chances of<\/p>\n\n\n\n
pulling off the upset and winning the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Argentina -333 (Rank: #1)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n They are the defending World Cup and Copa Am\u00e9rica champions, and have arguably the<\/p>\n\n\n\n greatest player of all-time on their squad. They come into this tournament on a five match win<\/p>\n\n\n\n streak and have won 13 of 14 since winning the World Cup back in December 2022. While the<\/p>\n\n\n\n odds are short, Argentina shouldn\u2019t have any problem against Canada to open the tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All eyes will be on Messi, who is likely playing in his last Copa, and no better way to go out than<\/p>\n\n\n\n repeating as champions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chile +425 (Rank: #42)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n After winning back-to-back Copa America titles in 2015 and 2016, Chile hasn\u2019t been able to<\/p>\n\n\n\n return to the final four in the last two tournaments. They did win this event the last time it was<\/p>\n\n\n\n played in the U.S but have been inconsistent over the last two years, unable to win consecutive<\/p>\n\n\n\n games. They could advance from the group, but likely in the runner-up spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Peru +1200 (Rank: #32)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Peru has always been considered a sleeper team at most tournaments. They\u2019re another South<\/p>\n\n\n\n American team that is consistently inconsistent. Peru hasn\u2019t done well recently in World Cup<\/p>\n\n\n\n qualifying, with just 2 draws in 5 matches. In 2024, La Rojiblanca went unbeaten in four<\/p>\n\n\n\n matches but the three wins came against soccer minnows (Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, El<\/p>\n\n\n\n Salvador). They will need to step-up their game in a big way if they have any chance of<\/p>\n\n\n\n challenging for top spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Canada +1400 (Rank: #49)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since the 2022 World Cup, Canada Soccer has been in disarray and had to win a playoff<\/p>\n\n\n\n against Trinidad & Tobago to qualify. New coach Jesse Marsch hasn\u2019t had much time to<\/p>\n\n\n\n prepare and recently got outclassed by the Netherlands before a nil-nil draw against France,<\/p>\n\n\n\n which added some optimism. This team is led by Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David, who will<\/p>\n\n\n\n be relied on heavily to score up front. A best case scenario for the Canadians is getting through<\/p>\n\n\n\n as runner-up, but winning this group, the odds are stacked against them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Group A Winner Odds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Argentina -333 Chile +425<\/p>\n\n\n\n Peru +1200 Canada +1400<\/p>\n\n\n\n Group A Fixtures & Schedule<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n June 20 – Argentina vs. Canada<\/p>\n\n\n\n June 21 – Peru vs. Chile<\/p>\n\n\n\n June 25 – Peru vs. Canada<\/p>\n\n\n\n June 25 – Chile vs. Argentina<\/p>\n\n\n\n June 29 – Argentina vs. Peru<\/p>\n\n\n\n June 29 – Canada vs. Chile<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Group A is the most lopsided table at Copa America, based on betting odds.
