Canada vs Uruguay Bet Builder Tips
Whether it's because of the poor conditions of the US pitches, scrapping extra time or some other deciding factor, we can't shy away from this Copa America tournament being shy of goals.
The 2024 edition is the lowest scoring renewal of the competition since 2011, with the slapdash competition providing a measly 2.21 goals per game average.
Many have criticised the lack of excitement over in America and after a combined return of 12 goals from six knockout matches - spiked by Colombia's 5-0 mauling of Panama - it's plain to see why.
Five of the six quarter-final and semi-final fixtures have fallen under this line and we anticipate Canada vs Uruguay being no exception to the general rule.
As La Celeste have had the most corners in each of their last six matches, including all five at this year's tournament, we're backing Marcelo Bielsa's men to outshine Canada in this department.
Jesse Marsch's side don't rack up many, which has been on display in the States, producing totals of 4, 1, 8, 3 and 2 - the outlier coming in a group stage contest with two-time winners Chile, who greatly disappointed at this 48th edition.
In terms of player props, dynamite forward Jonathan David enjoyed an exceptional season for Lille, scoring 26 goals across all competitions. Although he's failed to continue his good fortune for Canada in the US, scoring only once from five matches, he still boasts a very reasonable record of 27 strikes in 53 appearances.
With a promising shots per 90 average of 2.60 and having met this line in three of their five fixtures, including back-to-back successes against Venezuela and Argentina, David can hit the target once more this weekend.
The horrific post-match scenes involving Uruguay players and Colombia fans could swing either way for galvanising or demotivating the squad for this bronze shootout. Either way, combative defensive midfielder Manuel Ugarte is likely to be one individual needing no extra motivation for playing rough.
PSG's No.4 will be liable for preventing Canada counter attacks in a match they're heavily favoured to win but won't be able to take their eye off the ball against this prickly Canadian team.
Ugarte has committed 2+ fouls in two games at the tournament, giving away at least one foul in every single game, and allowing Colombia five free-kicks in their semi-final triumph.
Averaging an impressive 4.11 tackles per 90 and successfully completing a combined 24 tackles at this Copa America finals proves the 23-year-old is a busy operator in Bielsa's system and makes him a shrewd pick for racking up fouls.
