COL vs PAR Match Preview
The 2001 Copa America champions Colombia are ready to take on two-time Copa America champions Paraguay.
Colombia was the third-best team in two out of the last three Copa America editions (2016 and 2021). The Coffee Growers are in great shape at present. They are unbeaten in their last 23 fixtures (18 wins and five draws), including winning all of their latest eight games. During this period, they beat Mexico twice, and the USA, Brazil, Germany, and Spain once each. Colombia suffered their last defeat against Argentina in February 2022.
On the other hand, Paraguay is hugely struggling at present. In their last 14 matches, Paraguay won only three, lost seven, and drew four. The last two-time Copa America quarter finalists are desperate to put a stronger image in this tournament.
