Argentina Women vs Colombia Women Prediction
La Albiceleste were the only team to finish the first phase with a 100% record, keeping three clean sheets while scoring six goals. Notably, they are winless in their last five meetings against Las Chicas Superpoderosas, failing to score in two. Apart from a place in the final for the first time since 2006, if they secure a win here, they will also earn a direct place in the 2028 Olympics.
Las Cafeteras concluded the group stage of the competition with the joint-best attacking record, scoring 12 goals in four games. They took their tally in the Copa America Femenina to 101 goals, becoming just the third team after Argentina and Brazil to achieve the feat.
While both teams head into the match in great form, the 2022 runners-up have failed to score in two of their four games. With that in mind, and considering Argentina's 100% record, we back them to eke out a narrow win.
