All of our predictions, stats and the user poll for Colombia v Costa Rica are shown below (plus the best game odds).
Colombia, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 2-1 Copa America success against Paraguay.
In that game, Colombia had 68% possession and 11 attempts at goal with 3 on target. For Colombia, the goals were scored by Daniel Muñoz (32') and Jefferson Lerma (42'). Paraguay got 12 shots at goal with 3 on target. Julio César Enciso (69') scored for Paraguay.
At least three goals per game have been seen in 5 of the last 6 meetings where Colombia have played. Their opponents scored 6 of them in these games while Colombia bagged a total of 17.
In their previous game, Costa Rica drew 0-0 in the Copa America tie with Brazil.
In that game, Costa Rica managed 26% possession and 2 attempts at goal with 0 on target. For their opponents, Brazil had 19 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target.
In the course of their six latest matches, Gustavo Alfaro's Costa Rica have slotted home a total of 11 times - yielding them a goals scored per game average of 1.83.
In our view, Los Cafeteros will probably go for a 4-3-3 formation and select Camilo Vargas, Daniel Munoz, Yerry Mina, Davinson Sanchez, Johan Mojica, Richard Rios, Jefferson Lerma, Jhon Arias, James Rodriguez, Jhon Duran and Luis Diaz.
We reckon that Los Ticos could decide to elect for a 3-4-1-2 formation, starting Patrick Sequeira, Jeyland Mitchell, Juan Pablo Vargas, Francisco Calvo, Haxzel Quiros, Ariel Lassiter, Jefferson Brenes, Orlando Galo, Brandon Aguilera, Manfred Ugalde and Alvaro Zamora.
In our view, Colombia can score more than once when they come up against Costa Rica, who may well find it hard scoring.
We’re therefore expecting to see a comfortable 2-0 winning score for Colombia when all’s said and done.
Regarding the latest bookmaker odds on the 90 minute result market, backing Colombia can be had for 1.33, betting on a drawn result is 5 and taking a punt on the win for Costa Rica is 9. These are the top returns on offer at the current time.
