The seventh day of the Copa America 2019 in Brazil will see title favourites Uruguay go up against Japan in the second group stage game on Thursday.
Japan are one of the giants of Asian football and have more often than not performed well in international tournaments. The team though has not been in good form recently, and are coming off a game where they were outclassed by Chile. It will be a tough one for them bounce back from, as this matchup as well is going to require everything but the best from them if they want to get a point.
Meanwhile, Uruguay looked really solid in the first game, where they won by a margin of 4-0. The side looked in total control, and all of their main players stepped up to guide the team home. This is going to be a bonus for them, as they are only going to get better and better as the tournament progresses along.
