Faced with a potential early exit at the Copa America, the USA will wrap up group play on Monday by welcoming Uruguay to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
A 2-1 defeat versus Panama this week has the host nation narrowly above them for second on goal difference, while it would take a massive implosion for La Celeste not to make the quarter-finals after they trounced Bolivia 5-0.
We say: USA 1-3 Uruguay
It seems as though the pressure of being the hosts is getting the better of the Americans, who look vulnerable defensively and incredibly inconsistent.
There is little pressure on Uruguay heading into this fixture, but knowing Bielsa, we expect them to play aggressively and put away the opportunities presented to them.

Entering their final matchday of the 2024 Copa America, Panama need a result and some help to move into the knockout stage for the first time when they face Bolivia on Monday at Inter & Co Stadium in Orlando.
A 5-0 defeat versus Uruguay this week has dropped the Bolivians to the bottom of the Group C standings without a single point, while Los Canaleros defeated the United States 2-1 and are narrowly behind them for second on goal difference.
We say: Bolivia 0-1 Panama
Being without Carrasquilla will not make it easy, but we still believe there are enough quality Panamanian players capable of penetrating a weak and psychologically beaten-up Bolivian backline.
