One of the most exciting soccer events of the summer will take place across the United States, as the 48th edition of the Copa America is staged. Reigning World Cup holders Argentina will be the defending champions this summer, as they look for a record-breaking 16th success.

Before Betting On Copa America

All eyes will be on the United States in the world of international soccer between late June and mid-July, as the 2024 edition of the Copa America takes place. Teams involved will all be aiming to reach the final of the competition, which will be staged at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, on July 14.

Argentina will be among the leading contenders to win the tournament this summer after landing success at the 2022 World Cup. The South American nation ended their long wait for a 15th success at the Copa America in 2021 after securing a 1-0 success to record a first victory since 1993. It could be challenging to overlook their clear claims in the States this summer.

Brazil have won four editions of the Copa America since 1999, but this summer’s event comes at a pivotal time in their preparations for the 2026 World Cup. The South American giants have won just once across their last six internationals, and they will be hoping to build momentum against Mexico and the USA before their opener against Costa Rica in California.

The USA will be making their fifth appearance at the Copa America this summer, but they could have solid claims after finishing in fourth-place on two previous occasions. Their most recent finish in that position came when they last held the competition in 2016. Confidence in the American camp will likely be high after winning the CONCACAF Nations League in late March.

This looks set to be a wide-open edition of the Copa America this summer. Argentina are short in the betting, which means that a chance could be taken on Uruguay. The nation last won the tournament in 2011, and their recent competitive form is solid after winning each of their last three internationals.
