Argentina current form

Argentina are undefeated at the 2024 Copa America so far, topping their group ahead of Canada, Chile and Peru.

In the quarter-final stage, they drew 1-1 with Ecuador and progressed on penalties.

In the semi-final a few days ago, they beat Canada 2-0 with Julian Alvarez and Lionel Messi scoring the goals.

Lautaro Martinez is the top scorer in the competition, with four goals so far.

Colombia current form

Colombia, too, are undefeated and the only game they have failed to win so far came against Brazil in the group stage. They topped their group ahead of Brazil, Costa Rica and Paraguay.

They were mightily impressive in the quarter-final, putting five past Panama in a 5-0 win, with Jhon Cordoba, James Rodriguez, Luis Diaz, Richard Rios and Miguel Borja scoring.

The semi-final was a tighter affair as they beat Colombia 1-0 in a fiery affair.

Argentina vs Colombia Team News

Messi missed the group stage win over Peru as a precaution due to a tight hamstring but he returned for the next two games in the knockout stage unscathed.

Lionel Scaloni has an important decision to make in the final third as both Lautaro Martinez and Alvarez have started games up top in the tournament, and both have actually did well.

As Martinez is the top scorer in the competition, expect him to be given the nod.

For Colombia, Jefferson Lerma returned from suspension to score the winner in the semi-final so he will start again.

Daniel Munoz is suspended after he was sent off against Uruguay.

Copa America final scoreline prediction
