Argentina had another great performance in the quarter finals, inspired by Lionel Messi, and they will hope to go a step closer to the title when they take on Colombia in the semis. While Argentina thrashed Ecuador 3-0, Colombia had to go all the way to post match penalties before seeing off Uruguay after a 0-0 draw in regular time. Colombia have made it to the semis with just one win in the five matches at the tournament so far. They have no outright win in their last four matches, with their only victory at this competition coming in the opening game, against Ecuador. The only positive though is that they have three clean sheets in five matches. In their last 10 matches, Colombia have managed just two wins and going into this game, they have two losses in the last three matches. In the 2019 Copa America edition, they beat Argentina 2-0 and that’s one of the three straight unbeaten outings they hold against Argentina going to this game.

Argentina have their sights set on the final, where a potential match up with Brazil awaits. They struggled a bit in attack in their opening three games of the competition, scoring just three goals, but that has all changed in the last two matches. Argentina have scored seven goals in two games. Lionel Messi has four goals in the five matches played and after his performance in the last game, he will be a key player here. They have four straight wins ahead of this game, and three clean sheets in the last four matches, while they have scored in each of their last 16 matches. Right before this competition, Argentina and Colombia met, with Argentina losing a two-goal lead to see the clash end 2-2. They are unbeaten in 18 matches winning 11 of them.
