Peru vs Canada opens the evening’s action at 6:00 pm ET live on FS1 before Chile take on Argentina at 9:00 pm ET on the same channel. We’ll have our expert soccer predictions throughout Copa America as well as EVERY Euro 2024 game, but for now, let’s dive into our 2024 Copa America best bets for Tuesday.
Peru vs Canada best bet: Canada Win in Shutout (+270)
Canada faced a tough opening game as they took on defending champions Argentina in the first game at this year’s Copa America. The Canucks fell to a 2-0 defeat but have had their sights lowered considerably when they take on Peru in their second group game. The South Americans ground out a 0-0 tie with Chile in their opener, limiting their opponents to just a single shot on target. This could be a similarly tight affair and one that Canada can win with a shutout.
Peru have only scored in 4 of their last 11 games and are rock bottom of World Cup qualifying as a result, having netted just once in 6 games. Their recent run of decent form has come against the likes of Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, and Canada are a major step up on that. John Herdman’s men have been highly tried in games against the Netherlands, France and Argentina recently but they should relish this drop in class and can pick up a victory and a clean sheet.

Chile vs Argentina best bet: Argentina ML & both teams to score (+240)
Argentina began their Copa America defense with a 2-0 win over Canada and they can book their place in the next round with a game to spare by seeing off Chile. Chile were held to a 0-0 tie by Peru but they did create plenty of chances, and although they were unable to convert they may fare a bit better against Argentina. La Albiceleste are exceptional defensively but a few lapses have crept in recently and they have conceded in 2 goals of their last 4 games, while Canada were able to carve out a few opportunities but couldn’t make the most of them. Chile have scored in each of their last 3 meetings with their Argentina and can at least get on the scoresheet here, so there appears to be value in betting on an Argentina win and both teams to score.
