Top Soccer Betting Picks of the Week (June 17th, 2024)
Confirmed squad lists for CONMEBOL Copa América™
— CONMEBOL Copa América™️ ENG (@copaamerica_ENG) June 16, 2024
Copa America
Argentina vs. Canada
- When: Thursday, June 20th, 2024. 8:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Argentina -1.5 -109 // Canada +1.5 -111
Canada’s 0-0 draw against France in their last warm up match for this tournament impresses. Or did it? France didn’t play their best and if we look at the Canadian’s previous match, a 4-0 drubbing suffered against the Netherlands, things aren’t as rosy.
Argentina is firing on all cylinders. The Albiceleste is easily the top team in this competition, and the payout at -109 to beat Canada by 2 goals is fair. Back Messi, Lautaro, and the rest to get it done on the spread line.
Soccer Betting Pick: Argentina
Peru vs. Chile
- When: Friday, June 21st, 2024. 8:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Peru +310 // Chile +100
In one of the few first group matches that we can bet the moneyline, Peru is a massive underdog versus Chile. The Chileans head into this playing decent soccer after losing to France by a goal and beating Paraguay 3-0 in their last.
Peru, though, has won 3-of-5 with a couple draws. These two nations know each other well. So we shouldn’t expect one to dominate the other. The draw entices.
Soccer Betting Pick: Draw
Ecuador vs. Venezuela
- When: Saturday, June 22nd, 2024. 6:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Ecuador -135 // Venezuela +360
Ecuador lost the 2 friendlies they should have lost. Italy beat the Ecuadorians 2-0 and Argentina bested Ecuador 1-0.
In tournaments like the Copa, Ecuador usually steps it up. They’re likely to do so against Venezuela because the Venezuelans struggled to a 0-0 draw versus Guatemala in their last. The odds make Ecuador an overlay.
Soccer Betting Pick: Ecuador
Mexico vs. Jamaica
- When: Saturday, June 22nd, 2024. 9:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Mexico -164 // Jamaica +480
Mexico struggled big time in their last few international friendlies, dropping 3-of-4. International friendlies mean nothing, but they are a sign of where a team is heading into a tournament.
In that sense, El Tri could find themselves in deep water versus a better than they look on paper, Jamaican side. But Jamaica doesn’t have the players to beat Mexico. However, if Mexico plays to Jamaica’s level, a real possibility, a draw is possible.
Soccer Betting Pick: Draw
United States vs. Bolivia
- When: Sunday, June 23rd, 2024. 6:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: United States -1.75 -118 // Bolivia +1.75 -102
On June 8, the U.S. looked horrendous in a 1-5 loss to Colombia. The United States quickly bounced back in a 0-0 draw against Brazil. Which U.S. team shows up versus Bolivia?
The guess here is that the team that played 0-0 against Brazil gets it done. The reason is that the United States knows what they must do to have success at the Copa América. Not only that, but Bolivia is a mess, losing 3-1 to Ecuador and falling 0-3 to Colombia in their last 2 matches.
Soccer Betting Pick: United States
Uruguay vs. Panama
- When: Sunday, June 23rd, 2024. 9:00pm ET.
- Soccer Odds: Uruguay -1.5 -106 vs Panama +1.5 -114
Uruguay should rock Panama by at least 2 goals. The Uruguayans bring one of the most talented teams in the world to the Copa pitches. Francisco Valverde is a top midfielder and Darwin Nunez has become one of the Premier’s best forwards.
Panama doesn’t have the players to hang with the Uruguayans. Lay the -1.5 on Nunez and his mates to roll.
Soccer Betting Pick: Uruguay
