Live on Premier Sports
Ponte Preta 3 Atletico PR 2 in Brazil last night, which means it was a brief and happy stopover in South America. We're back to the north of the continent tonight for the first of the Copa America quarter-finals.
Going back to November last year, only one team has scored in all six of the USA's competitive games. At their own tournament, the hosts lost 2-0 to Colombia before notching win to nils against Costa Rica and Paraguay. Since February they've played seven games on home soil and those Colombia goals are the only ones they've conceded. Those seven games include a 1-0 friendly win over tonight's opponents last month.
Ecuador started their Copa America campaign with a goalless draw against Brazil. They were a greater attacking force against Peru (2-2) and group minnows Haiti (4-0) but Under 2.5 Goals has been the right bet in 6/8 quarter-finals across the last two Copa Americas and we're standing by it today.
