The 2024 Copa America rolls on on Wednesday, June 26, as Mexico looks to continue their solid start against Venezuela. Mexico started their Copa America campaign with a 1-0 victory over Jamaica but Venezuela also registered a win against Ecuador, making this a crucial matchup for them. That clash gets started at 9:00 pm ET on FS1, while Ecuador vs Jamaica precedes it at 6:00 pm ET, also on FS1. 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 Wednesday.
Venezuela vs Mexico best bet: Tie (+210)
Venezuela and Mexico face off on Wednesday night and a stalemate has potential in this Group B matchup. Both teams won their opening games, with Venezuela edging the 10 men of Ecuador 2-1 while Mexico snuck past Jamaica 1-0. El Tri are favorites but have been hard to trust recently, winning just 4 of their last 10 games. They were beaten by Honduras recently and look in many ways a pale shadow of their former selves.
Venezuela may not be doing too well in World Cup qualifying but they are quietly picking up solid results, including a 1-1 tie with Brazil. Italy needed a late winner to sneak past them in a recent exhibition game and that was 1 of only 2 defeats in their last 9 matchups. They have tied 4 of their last 8 encounters and could pick up another point in this one.
