Colombia won its opening game at the 2024 Copa America while on the other side, Costa Rica didn’t but their goalless tie against Brazil was like a triumph. Both teams are entering this matchup with high morale, yet the pressure is on the Colombians to win.
Before Betting on Colombia vs. Costa Rica
You have to know that Colombia hasn’t lost for the last 23 games. Everything has changed since Nestor Lorenzo took over this team. The Argentinian created a perfect atmosphere and chemistry, which made Los Cafeteros one of the best units in the world.
Right now, Colombia has nine consecutive victories, and they seem to be the team with the best form of all at the Copa America, even better than Argentina. Also, their events are interesting, with only one over the last six missing to see three or more goals.
Costa Rica stayed unbeaten against Brazil. We saw a goalless tie after 90 minutes, but this result is worth gold for the Ticos, who were written off before this event. Goalkeeper Partic Sequeira was the man of the match, with him stopping all the attacks and turning out to be the biggest contributor to his team.
Costa Rica’s most powerful weapon is the defense. It was throughout the years, with Keylor Navas in front of the net, and it continued after his departure. Three of their previous meetings before Copa America were all with them, keeping a clean sheet.
