| Copa America Preview: Uruguay vs. Mexico |
Uruguay is -200 at online sportsbook BetPhoenix and they have other odds on the match as well. July 4, 2011: Uruguay kicked off their 2011 Copa America campaign with a below par performance, after only managing a come-from-behind 1-1 draw with Peru. July 8, 2011: Chile and Uruguay played out a exhilarating 1-1 draw in the Copa America which saw Alvaro Pereira and Alexis Sanchez each finding the net in the second half. The side that went the furthest among the South Americans in the World Cup last year is 1 match away from getting knocked out of the Copa America in the earliest stage. It was Uruguay who made the superior start in both the games, but surprisingly, as the games grew older, the 14 time Champions appeared enervated and looked like a bunch of guys who had no initiative of what was going on in the match. The Charrúas will be looking to attack from the very first minute as winning this fixture will ensure their qualification for the next round providing that Chile and Peru don’t play out a draw in their respective fixture. The fact that Mexico are a strong team will be the least of coach Oscar Tabarez’ concerns as Napoli striker Edinson Cavani needs some relaxation following a knee sprain which could be enough to rule him out of the final Group C fixture. The best player on the team is Luiz Suarez, the Liverpool hitman who propped up to salvage his side from a shock defeat against Peru, will again be expected to head start the Uruguayan frontline in Buenos Aires. With strike partner Edinson Cavani almost certainly out for the fixture, all the pressure will fall on the shoulders of Suarez and Diego Forlan to bring back the happiness in the country that prevailed on the occasion of the World Cup last year. The freshly crowned Gold Cup Champions were nowhere Near good quality as they succumbed to defeat in both their opening matches of the tournament. They sit 4th in Group C behind Chile, Peru and Uruguay. However, they are still mathematically in the chase to conclude as one of the two best third-place finishers; they have to beat Uruguay in the upcoming fixture in order to have any hope of advancing to the next round. Mexico lost by a goal to nil against a Peru side that could’ve scored a lot more if they had tried. Mexico’s youngsters were tired and out of ideas, while Peru were happy to pass the ball around without making an effort to double their lead. Giovani was the only Mexican playing his heart out for a goal. He was making runs, playing in the ball, passing exceptionally and running up and down the field all game. It was sad to see how the rest of the team, particularly Pacheco and Marquez, really ruined his efforts with such poor touches on the ball. Coach Luis Fernando Tena will have to give his boys an inspiring and stimulus talk in order to beat Uruguay and to have any chance of Qualifying for the quarter finals. Today, the 11th of July, 2011 – The Mexican U17 side defeated Uruguay to win the Fifa World Championship. Their fans will be hoping for a similar result from the senior squad tomorrow. Mexico is good enough to keep this game close. At the huge odds taking a flyer on this team to win is worth it. Free Pick: Mexico +580
