Panama vs USA Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Copa America 2024
A crucial match for both teams to decide their fate in the competition.
Panama suffered a loss in their opening Copa America 2024 match against Uruguay. Despite going toe-to-toe with them for most of the game, they conceded two goals in the final minutes to give Marcelo Bielsa’s team the win.
Thomas Christiansen’s side now face a strong USA team who will aim to put more misery on them. A loss here will see the Canal Men miss out on the next rounds. They cannot afford to slip up. If they had taken the chances against Uruguay, things could have been different for them.
USA started their campaign with a brilliant win against Bolivia in the opening match. Goals from Christian Pulisic and Folarin Balogun were enough to seal the victory for them. There were plenty of eyes on how they would fare as host nations.
Gregg Berhalter’s side silenced everyone by putting a statement win as they dominated the game throughout the match. With the attacking trio in good form coupled with some excellent defending from the defenders, they are a side to look out for.
