In the second round of the Copa America group stage, the United States will face Panama. This match will take place in the early hours of Friday, June 28, starting at 00:00 Central European Time. Dailysports analysts have prepared a forecast for this encounter.
Panama
The team began the current tournament with a match against Uruguay, predictably losing 1-3. Panama's only goal came in the fifth minute of added time. Overall, in that game, the Panamanians were mostly on the defensive, managing only three shots on target. The match against the United States will be crucial in the battle for playoff spots, as a loss would eliminate any chances of reaching the quarterfinals.
This is Panama's second appearance in the Copa America. Their first tournament was in 2016, also held in the United States, where they failed to advance to the playoffs and finished in 12th place. In preparation for the current Copa America, Panama played a friendly against Paraguay, which ended in a 0-1 defeat. Notable in their squad is defender Michael Murillo, who plays for Marseille. Last season, he made 16 appearances for the French team, scoring three goals and providing two assists.
United States
The Americans are the hosts of this Copa America. This is the fifth time the United States has participated in the tournament. The last time they played was in 2016, which also took place in America. Their best achievement is finishing fourth, a feat they accomplished in 2016 and 1995. They have twice failed to reach the playoffs.
In the current tournament, the United States is close to securing a quarterfinal spot. In their first match, they faced Bolivia. Quick goals from Christian Pulisic and Folarin Balogun settled the outcome in the first half. The Stars and Stripes started the 2024 Copa America with a 2-0 victory. Thus, a win over Panama would guarantee them a place in the quarterfinals.
Overall, the United States has a very strong squad for this tournament. Goalkeeper Matt Turner from Nottingham Forest, Timothy Weah and Weston McKennie from Juventus, Yunus Musah and Christian Pulisic from Milan. There are also several players from the Premier League, the Dutch Eredivisie, and other European leagues. During their preparation for the Copa America, the Americans lost to Colombia 1-5 and drew with Brazil 1-1.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history
- Panama and the United States last played each other in 2023, when Panama defeated the Americans in a penalty shootout.
- None of Panama's last nine matches have ended in a draw.
Panama vs United States prediction
The United States started this tournament well, unlike Panama. This match will determine whether the Americans secure a quarterfinal spot or if Panama still has a chance to fight for the playoffs. The United States has a better selection of players and is playing on home soil. In my opinion, they are the favorites in this game. I am ready to bet that the Stars and Stripes will score at least 1.5 goals in this match, with odds of 1.5.
