Colombia vs Uruguay Betting Odds and Spreads

Colombia: Great Soccer Betting Value

Uruguay managed to eliminate Brazil in the quarterfinals thanks to a 4-2 victory in the penalty shootout. The game finished 0-0 but Los Charruas had plenty of opportunities to score, especially during the first half.

The bad news is that they lost two players. Ronald Araujo left the match with a muscular injury while Nahitan Nandez was sent off during the second half. Jose Maria Gimenez and Sebastian Caceres are expected to replace them in the starting lineup vs. Colombia.

Precisely, that’s the good news – that Uruguay has talent to spare. In the end, we’re talking about a team in which Rodrigo Bentancur, Giorgian de Arrascaeta, Guillermo Varela, and Luis Suarez aren’t starters! That’s crazy!

Darwin Nunez and Maximiliano Araujo are among the tournament’s top scorers, each with two goals. When it comes to the top-scoring team, Uruguay follows Colombia with nine goals in total.

On the other hand, Los Charruas have conceded only one and it was in their tournament opener, which is always tricky, and it was in the 94th minute.

In other words, we’ve two incredibly, well-balanced squads colliding on Wednesday night, and you won’t find a more tempting underdog to include in your soccer picks than Uruguay, especially at +193 odds.

I expect a back-and-forth battle with plenty of yellow cards, both teams will go over 2½, and also plenty of goals, enough for the total go over 2½ as well. I like Colombia to win 2-1.

Colombia showed no mercy in the quarterfinals and crushed Panama 5-0. The same team that pulled off the stunner against the United States and Panama couldn’t even score. That’s how good this Colombian team is.

No other team at Copa America has scored more goals than Los Cafeteros with 11. As if that weren’t enough, they’ve only conceded two goals. In other words, we’re talking about an exceptionally, well-balanced squad. So much that they haven’t lost in their last 27 matches in all competitions.

That’s not all. Five different players scored against Panama, which makes this team even more dangerous! Yes, James Rodriguez and Luis Diaz are the superstars, but right now, everyone is playing at a great level. I told you to include Diaz in your soccer picks!

Diaz is one of three Colombian players that has scored two goals. Daniel Munoz and Jhon Cordoba complete the list. Rodriguez has only scored one goal, but he leads the tournament in assists with five. He and Lionel Messi are the betting online favorites to win the Player of the Tournament award at +350 and +300.

Summing up, if there’s something you can expect from Colombia, it’s goals. Los Cafeteros have scored at least one goal for 12 consecutive matches. A match involving Colombia hasn’t finished with a goalless draw since mid-September.

Last week, I recommended you Diaz. Now, I think you should take Cordoba. I’m convinced he’s going to be the X-factor.
