Copa America - Venezuela preview
Group C
Brazil – Peru – Colombia – Venezuela
Group B should be a stroll for Brazil but Colombia are a capable side. Peru and Venezuela will likely battle for that possible 3rd spot.
Ok let’s break down the teams with some outright betting, Group Winners and anything else that presents itself!
VENEZUELA (Ranked 10th in Comnebol)
2014-15 Form: 3 wins, 0 draws, 6 losses. – Win % 33%
2014-15 Top Scorers: J.Martinez 1, J.Murillo 1.
Venezuela are one of the least successful sides in the confederation – having never won this competition nor made it to a World Cup final. They have came on in leaps and bounds though in recent years. Even making it to 4th place in 2011. However they are not in great form and have lost a lot of games over the last 18 months. Korea, Japan, Bolivia and Jamaica are hardly the cream of the crop either. They are struggling to find goals and no player in the current squad has managed to score more than one in that period.
I don’t think its possible that Venezuela can get anything from Colombia and Brazil – if they somehow manage to beat Peru Venezuela then they could qualify. They are 3-1 or 4.00 with Ladbrokes to qualify – however I recommend no bet.
