Brazil and Colombia lock horns to decide who will finish top of Group D.
The Colombians head into the big fixture with a distinct advantage but you can never rule out a Brazil side with superstars like Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo Goes.
Copa America betting is even better with NetBet and you can make full use of our BetBuilder feature. Read on as we preview one of the biggest Copa America 2024 clashes so far.
Brazil vs Colombia
Wednesday, July 3, 2am
Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, California, United States of America
Live on Premier Sports
Preview
Colombia’s advantage ahead of kick-off is due to the fact they have already picked up six points thanks to wins over Costa Rica and Paraguay.
With Premier League stars such as Daniel Munoz and Jefferson Lerma shining bright, as well as veteran James Rodrgiuez, they are already through to the knockout stage and will want to progress as group winners to perhaps earn an easier quarter-final draw.
But Brazil will also be brimming with confidence having bounced back from a disappointing 0-0 draw with Costa Rica to thrash Paraguay 4-1.
It was a game in which Vinicius ended his goal drought with a much-needed brace and it could act as a launching pad for Brazilian success at this Copa America.
However, Colombia have recent fond memories of playing Brazil, having beat the five-time world champions 2-1 in a 2026 World Cup qualifier back in November.
Luis Diaz scored a brace that day and the Liverpool winger will be out to cause more mayhem after opening his tournament account in the 3-0 win over Costa Rica.
Odds
Brazil, unsurprisingly, are the favourites here at 1.80. Colombia are at 4.60 and the draw – which would be enough to secure top spot for the Colombians – is at 3.55.

Betting Tips
No clean sheets
With so much on the line and both teams having scored three or more goals in their previous encounters, we think each goalkeeper is getting beaten in this one. Brazil to win and both teams to score is 4.10.
Vini is the man
After scoring against Paraguay, the stage is set for Vinicius to explode at this Copa America. The Real Madrid star to score first is at 6.50.
BetBuilder
Fancy making the most of our BetBuilder feature? Well, there is a combo that looks pretty good to us and involves another Real Madrid forward delivering the goods. Rodrygo to score anytime, Brazil to win and over 1.5 goals in the match is 5.50.
