Uruguay vs Colombia prediction

Uruguay were held to a 0-0 stalemate by Brazil in the quarter-final and needed post-match penalties before they could qualify for this semi-final. It was the only time Uruguay failed to score in this tournament so far, but also underlined their defensive prowess to keep Brazil’s attack at bay. Nevertheless, they will have to play this semi-final without the dependable Barcelona center-back Ronald Araujo, who was withdrawn against Brazil due to injury, and versatile fullback Nahitan Nandez who was sent off in the second half of the same match.

Colombia stretched their unbeaten run to 27 games across all competitions with a 5-0 thumping of Panama in another quarter-final. It was a match in which Colombia’s James Rodriguez had 3 assists and 1 goal, and the team had 5 different scorers in the end. Colombia have emerged favorites to lift the trophy following their excellent performances so far, but the next game is a real test of their quality.

These are two of the most exciting teams at the Copa so far with their attacking football. Uruguay scored 13 goals and Colombia 14 goals in their last 5 games respectively. We expect this game to have a good number of goals as well, hence our Uruguay vs Colombia prediction is Over 2.5 Goals.
