The Copa America 2021 is back in action with another important game this weekend as Colombia lock horns with Peru in a battle for third place at the tournament. Both teams have been impressive in recent weeks and will have to be at their best this weekend.
Peru have exceeded expectations in Copa America 2021 and are perfectly capable of another upset. The Peruvians have a balanced squad and also defeated Colombia in the group stage last month.
Colombia have also punched above their weight this month and narrowly lost to Argentina in the semi-final last week. The Colombians have an impressive record against Peru and will be confident going into this game.

Mateus Uribe and Yairo Moreno are currently injured and have been ruled out of the game against Peru this week. Former Real Madrid midfielder James Rodriguez has not been picked for the tournament and is unavailable for selection.
Colombia will likely set up on the counter with Atalanta duo Duvan Zapata and Luis Muriel leading the line. Yerry Mina and Davinson Sanchez will hold the fort in defence and will have their work cut out for them in this game.
