Canada are set to face Chile in a crucial Copa America 2024 group-stage match at the Inter&Co Stadium in Orlando, Florida on Saturday.
Both teams aim to secure a spot in the knockout rounds, with Canada making their tournament debut and Chile looking to recapture their former glories in the competition they won back-to-back in 2015 and 2016.
Canada's journey so far has been mixed, with a 2-0 loss to Argentina followed up by a 1-0 victory over Peru. They hope to find consistency and secure their place in the quarterfinals with a win.
Chile's recent form includes a 3-0 win over Paraguay, a 0-0 draw with Peru and a narrow 1-0 loss to Argentina.
This match marks the first-ever competitive meeting between Canada and Chile, but with a spot in the knockout rounds on the line, it has the potential to be an all-action matchup.
Will Canada continue their strong debut, or will Chile secure their place in the next stage? All eyes will be on the Inter &Co Stadium this weekend.

Canada vs. Chile lineups & team news
Canada heads into their Copa America clash with Chile following a strategic half-time triple substitution in their win over Peru.
Derek Cornelius, Liam Millar and Ismael Kone, who were taken off early, may find themselves on the bench. Kamal Miller is expected to replace Cornelius in central defense, while Richie Laryea is likely to keep his spot at left-back, allowing Alphonso Davies to play further forward.
Canada's attack will likely feature top scorers Cyle Larin and Jonathan David. Jacob Shaffelburg could start on the wing, potentially replacing Millar.
Canada projected starting lineup (4-2-3-1): Crepeau (GK) — Johnston, Bombito, Miller, Laryea — Osorio, Eustaquio — Buchanan, David, Davies — Larin.
For Chile, coach Ricardo Gareca might make a few changes. Ben Brereton Diaz is pushing to start ahead of Eduardo Vargas or Victor Davila in attack.
Young winger Dario Osorio could keep his place on the right, while veteran Alexis Sanchez will continue in the number 10 role. Midfielder Erick Pulgar, one booking away from suspension, is expected to start alongside Rodrigo Echeverria or Marcelino Nunez.
Chile projected starting lineup (4-2-3-1): Bravo (GK) — Isla, Lichnovsky, Diaz, Suazo — Nunez, Pulgar — Osorio, Sanchez, Brereton Diaz — Vargas.
Canada vs. Chile prediction
- Score prediction: Canada 2-1 Chile
Despite their loss to Argentina, Canada has looked solid throughout the tournament, showing strong defense and midfield cohesiveness. Their crucial goal against Peru demonstrated their attacking potential, boosting their confidence ahead of the clash with Chile.
In contrast, Chile appears to be struggling, with their once-dominant form from their 2016 Copa America victory fading. La Roja's attack seems disconnected, leading to imbalances in their gameplay. Given that, Canada stands a good chance to capitalize on Chile's weaknesses and secure a historic entry into the knockout rounds.
