Both teams have all the tools to do well in the Copa America this year.

Mexico started their preparation for the 2024 Copa America by defeating Bolivia in the last friendly match at their home ground. Most of the uncapped players who played in this match impressed in what was their first start for the national team. Now they have the chance to defeat Uruguay in their final friendly before heading out to play their opening match against Jamaica in Copa America.

Under the management of Marcelo Bielsa, Uruguay are starting to click as a team. He has assembled a strong squad of players who are hungry and dedicated to leading their nation to victory. In the role of leader, players such as Federico Valverde, Rodrigo Bentancur and Darwin Nunez haven’t failed to deliver. The first match of the Copa America will be against Panama, followed by matches with Bolivia and the United States.

Thursday, 6 June at 6:30 AM IST

Location: Empower Field

Form

Mexico (in all competitions): L-W-W-L-W

Uruguay (in all competitions): W-W-W-L-D

Players to Watch

Santiago Gimenez (Mexico) 

With 26 goals and eight assists in 41 appearances for Feyenoord this term, Santiago Gimenez has had an incredible season. Due to his goal-scoring exploits, some of the world’s best clubs are already pursuing him. Gimenez is a tall, physically strong centre forward who dominates opponents in the air and is equally dangerous from set pieces. Mexico are likely to start him here.

Darwin Nunez (Uruguay) 

Darwin Nunez has been given the responsibility to lead the line in recent fixtures. Guess what? He hasn’t disappointed either, scoring three goals in the last two matches. With Edinson Cavani retiring and Luis Suarez being rested for this match, Nunez has a golden chance to establish himself in the team ahead of Copa America. The Uruguay international scored 18 goals and added 13 assists for Liverpool during this campaign.
