Argentina, on the other hand, also are on an unbeaten run so far in this campaign, but they had to go an extra mile in the semi-final in which they defeated Colombia 3-2 via the penalty shootout.

This will be the first time in 14 years that the two top South American football nations will face each other in a Copa America final and there is no doubt a clash of the titans awaits us on Saturday (July 10).

Argentina vs Brazil Key Players

Argentina: No player has more goal involvement in this tournament than Lionel Messi. With four goals and five assists so far in this tournament, it should signify his importance to this side. If Argentina wish to end their trophy drought, their captain has to play a starring role once again.

Brazil: As expected, Brazil's star performer in this tournament has once again been the PSG star, Neymar. Most of the Brazilian attack has gone through Neymar who has helped break open defence for his teammates. He has to play a crucial role in this titanic fixture if he is to conquer a tight Argentine defence.
