Tip and bets
Argentina confidently reached the semifinals of the tournament, but one can hardly say that the Albiseleste show outstanding football, most of the victories were scored on class. Even if Colombia have a disadvantage in class, it is not significant. Los Cafeteros have good defense, they are in good form and surely capable of giving a fight.
We believe that the favorite will not win in regulation time. Our prediction - Colombia will not lose.
Argentina do not play attacking football, even in those games where Albiselste are the clear favorites. They won't dare to change that approach in the semifinal against Colombia, and probably the Colombians also play mostly on the defensive. We do not expect many goals from the teams.
Our second bet - total under 2.5 goals.
