Maxime Crépeau GK vs. Sergio Rochet GK
Maxime Crepeau has been an indispensable goalkeeper for Canada at this tournament, recording 17 saves and two clean sheets. His ability to read the game and make crucial saves have been essential in Canada’s defensive setup; but against Uruguay’s potent attack which averages 2.6 goals per match, Darwin Nunez and Federico Valverde may test him with goal attempts against Canada.
Sergio Rochet has been equally impressive for Uruguay. Boasting three clean sheets and only conceding two goals since the tournament started, his goalkeeping presence has provided Uruguay an effective defensive structure. His quick reflexes and ability to organize defense will be essential in curbing Canada’s offensive efforts; something they have found difficult doing so far.
When these two goalkeepers face off against one another, it will be an intense competition of positioning and reflexes. When Crepeau faces Rochet – who has established himself as an effective defensive leader over time – their battle may determine the outcome of any given game with both striving to outdo each other in performance.
Canada’s Top Scorers: Jonathan David and Jacob Shaffelburg
Jonathan David: Jonathan David has led Canada with distinction in this tournament as their star forward, scoring one goal and taking seven shots with two of those shots being on target. David’s ability to open up space and exploit defensive weaknesses may prove key against Uruguay’s formidable defense.
Jacob Shaffelburg: Jacob Shaffelburg has been one of Canada’s standout players during this tournament, scoring one goal and providing an assist. His ability to make quick runs and precise shots at goal will prove key in breaking down Uruguayan defense; working closely alongside David as an effective way of opening their backline.
Uruguay’s Top Scorers: Darwin Núñez and Maximiliano Araújo
Darwin Nunez has been an outstanding performer for Uruguay, scoring two goals on 20 shots with five being on target. Renowned for his physicality and sharp shooting ability, Nunez is sure to play an integral part of Uruguay’s gameplan.
Maximiliano Araujo: Maximiliano Araujo has been an essential player for Uruguay in this tournament, particularly his versatility as both offensive and defensive player. Canada must watch out for Araujo; his habit of appearing when necessary makes him one of the biggest threats they face.

Canada vs. Uruguay Betting Picks
Betting trends and analysis suggest Uruguay will be an formidable opponent going into this matchup, boasting both offense and defense that could make them favorites to come out victorious against Canada; however, their resilience should not be discounted; bettors might wish to place a bet against Uruguay with a +0.5 handicap given recent performance indicators.
Due to Uruguay’s impressive defensive record and Canada’s inability to score goals early in a match, betting at -105 for total goals below 2.5 could prove profitable. Betting on Uruguay’s offensive prowess as well as Darwin Nunez’s ability to score at any time could also provide rewards.
Uruguay is the clear choice for 2024 Copa America’s 3rd Place Picks, based on their performance and betting trends, and scoring goals without weakening defensive systems – giving them an edge against Canada.
