Match Preview
One of the greatest rivalries on the international stage is set to take place once again in the Copa América semi-final, as hosts Brazil (FIFA rank: #3) welcome bitter rivals Argentina (#11) for a chance to face either Chile or Peru in the final. Brazil leads the all-time series with a return of: W42, D24, L38, including four of the last five encounters (W3, D1, L1). |
After going out in the quarter-finals via a penalty defeat to Paraguay in two of the last three editions, Brazil managed to overcome the hoodoo on the third attempt after a goalless 120 minutes. That goalless match means Brazil have not conceded a single goal in any match in 623 minutes of play (W5, D1). |
Brazil coach Tite won his most recent encounter against Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina (1-0) in the only prior clash of the managers. Moreover, all three of Tite’s managerial H2Hs with Argentina saw just one team score (W2, L1). |
Despite the fact that Argentina have lost just one of their last six matches (W4, D1, L1), they have left much to be desired in recent encounters against top-ten ranked nations. ‘La Albiceleste’ have lost each of their last four such matches and are winless in five (D1, L4), since a 1-0 victory over none other than Brazil in June 2016. |
Players to watch: Brazil forward Everton battles for the top-scorer accolade with Phillipe Coutinho (two goals apiece); three of the four goals between them have come after half-time. |
Argentina’s Lautaro Martínez has opened the scoring within the first ten minutes in each of his last two matches. |
Stat attack: Brazil have lifted the trophy in all five South American Championships/CA’s that they have hosted. |
Argentina average 2.0 bookings per match across the last six H2Hs. |
Seven of Argentina’s last eight victories in all competitions have come by more than a single-goal margin. |
