New Delhi: Defending COPA champions will take on an inexperienced Canadian side in the semifinals of the COPA America 2024. Both teams are coming after playing back-breaking fixtures in the quarterfinals. While Argentina played a 1-1 draw against Ecuador which ended in penalties, Canada also shared a similar fate against Venezuela.

Naturally, there will be many tired legs out there in both camps. Talking about the team combinations, La Albiceleste won’t be making many changes apart from the wild idea of dropping Messi to the bench owing to an injury sustained earlier. However, Scaloni knows the value of Messi and the effect that he has on the team. Naturally, it will be under extraordinary situations that Leo might be dropped.
On the other hand, Canada will miss the services of Tajon Buchanan who has a broken Tibia. Apart from Buchanan, Jesse Marsch would not think about tinkering much with a winning formula.
Argentina vs Canada: Predicted XI
Argentina Probable XI
Emi Martinez (GK), Nahuel Molina, Cristian Romero, Lisandro Martinez, Nicolás Tagliafico, Rodrigo De Paul, Leandro Paredes, Alexis Mac Allister, Nicolás Gonzalez, Lionel Messi, Lautaro Martinez.
Canada Probable XI
Maxime Crepeau (GK), Alistair Johnston, Moïse Bombito, Derek Cornelius, Alphonso Davies, Ismaël Kone, Stephen Eustaquio, Liam Millar, Jonathan David, Jacob Shaffelburg, Cyle Larin.
