Well, degens. It is Day 4 at the Copa America tournament, and the USA is on the clock. That’s right, you soccer hooligans; Sunday evening, the US Men’s National Team begins their tournament. In terms of numbers and rankings, this should be a lay-up for the USA. But for those of you who are even vaguely familiar with this squad, you know it can be an adventure. Let’s take a closer look into the matchup and find two entries that can make us some cash. Here are today’s two best Copa America Underdog Fantasy Picks for June 23.
The Quick Pick: Daily Copa America Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for June 23
Ramiro Vaca Higher Than 0.5 Shots On Target (1.1x Odds)
The Bolivian’s make their way into this opening game of Group C in a less than desirable form. In fact, they have now lost their last three matches and have struggled to find the net. If this team expects to get a result against the USA, they will need to do it by way of a low-scoring match. Our value hunting glasses are on and this first entry is Bolivian midfielder Ramiro Vaca.
Ramiro Vaca plays his club soccer for Club Bolivar in Bolivia. In this past season, he played 19 games and logged five goals with six assists. He should be the focal point for anything truly creative or inspiring in this midfield. As mentioned above, if the Bolivians want a result tonight, it will be tactical and low-scoring. With Vaca leading the way from the midfield, I like his ability to find soft spots in the US midfield. That should also open up looks from a distance. So we’re going to use Ramiro Vaca Higher Than 0.5 Shots on target at 1.1x Odds.
Christian Pulisic Higher Than 0.5 Goals + Assists
The US Men’s National Team can be classified as an enigma wrapped inside a riddle. Case and point is a draw against Brazil their last time on the pitch. However, in the game before that, they were taken back to the woodshed by Colombia, losing 5-1. Copa America is a big test for the USA, and nothing other than three points against Bolivia is acceptable. This second entry really doesn’t need the value hunting glasses because it’s a household USA name.
The bright young American Christian Pulisic just completed one of his best career seasons at AC Milan. He scored 16 goals and added 10 assists across 51 games in all competitions. He is also the focal point of the USA attack, coming in off the left wing. Pulisic is dynamic because he creates, and he scores, and he should probably be playing the full 90 minutes to ensure a solid victory. This second Underdog entry should be the closest thing to a layup, as you will see on the soccer field. Let’s press Christian Pulisic Higher Than 0.5 Goals + Assists against Bolivia.
