Jamaica vs Venezuela predicted line-up, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, broadcast

La Vinotinto has an all-win record in Group B.

It will be the final match of the 2024 Copa America for the “Reggae Boyz” as they take on leaders Venezuela in Group B. The Jamaican football team, competing in its third Copa America, has already been eliminated from the competition as they suffered defeats in the first two meetings against Mexico and Ecuador.

Venezuela have enjoyed a great season so far, having edged past Ecuador and Mexico in their first two matches to seal their place in the quarter-finals. The Fernando Batista-coached side will be looking to dominate their struggling North American opponents in the final group match and secure further qualification as table-toppers.

Kick-off:

Monday July 1, 2024 at 1:00 AM UK

Monday, July 1, 2024 at 05:30 AM IST

Location: Q2 Stadium, Austin, Texas

Form:

Jamaica (in all competitions): LLWWW

Venezuela (in all competitions): WWDLL

Players to watch:

Shamar Nicholson (Jamaica)

The 27-year-old Clermont Foot forward must prove his worth in Jamaica’s final Copa America 2024 match. The centre-forward has played almost full minutes in both games for Jamaica this season, but his performances have not satisfied many.

With nothing to fight for, Jamaica can field some new faces in the game, although Nicholson is expected to start. It would be an ideal opportunity for him to show his class. He has scored 11 international goals in 42 matches so far.

Jhonder Cadiz (Venezuela)

The 1.90m tall striker delivered a superb performance in the campaign opener, opening the scoring for his country. The 28-year-old has not yet started in the competition, but will certainly get a chance in the match against Jamaica.

He can also act as a false nine as the game progresses. His ability to penetrate from the right will also be a nightmare for the Jamaican backline.

Competition Facts:

  • A win here makes Batista the first manager to win all Copa America group stage matches for Venezuela.
  • Jamaica is already out of the quarterfinals.
  • Jamaica have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last three games.

Injury and team news
