JAKARTA - The quarter-finals of the 2024 Copa America will bring together Venezuela vs Canada. The match will take place at the AT&T Stadium on Saturday, July 6, 2024, at 08.00 WIB.

From Venezuelan camp, they brought qualified provisions to win. La Vinotinto is an unbeaten team during the 2024 Copa America group stage.

Venezuela managed to make a 2-1 comeback over Ecuador before beating Mexico 1-0 in the group's second game. La Vinotinto continued a slick trend in the group stage with a 3-0 win over Jamaica in their last game.

The victory through Eduard Bello's goals, Solomon Rondon, and Eric Ramirez made Venezuela's adventure to continue until now exploring the quarter-finals.

This opportunity is a comeback moment for Venezuela, which in the last two of the last three editions has always been knocked out of the quarter-finals. This opportunity will also be utilized optimally in order to secure a place to the final.

With that slick unbeaten record, Venezuela became one of the most prominent teams in the 2024 Copa America. Leandro Cufre's side also have a record as an unbeaten team in their last five games against the Concacaf team.

The note makes Venezuela the seeded team on paper against Canada in the quarter-finals later.

Meanwhile, Canada, which will face Venezuela with a runner-up status in Group A, has a fairly inconsistent note. Jesse Marsch's team stepped in four points from three group matches.

In the opening match against Argentina, Canada lost 0-2. Then they came up with a 1-0 win against Peru in the second match. In the last match, they actually drew without a goal against Chile.

Despite their windy performances, Canada managed to secure a place in the quarter-finals. This moment clearly has to be proof that The Canucks deserve to be a countable team.

The Copa America 2024 quarter-final match will mark the third meeting between Venezuela v Canada. Their last duel ended in a draw.

Canada has a less impressive record. They only scored one goal throughout the group stage. This happens because the Canucks are considered to often have difficulty taking advantage of opportunities in front of goal.

In the quarter-finals, the situation must be evaluated by Canada to show dominance over Venezuela. Moreover, Jesse Marsch's team also has a superior status as a team ranked 48 FIFA, rather than Venezuela in 54th position.

However, ranking cannot be used solely as a reference. Venezuela remains superior considering their performance is better than Canada's.

La Vinotinto have a great chance to continue their positive trend in the 2024 Copa America.
