The stage is set for a tantalizing clash between Argentina and Colombia in the final of this year's Copa America. Both teams have fought hard throughout the tournament to reach this final and both teams are now determined to get their hands on the cup as they prepare to lock horns at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

Lionel Messi will be leading Argentina, the reigning champions of the Copa America and the 2022 World Cup. The 37-year-old superstar, who is nearing his last few years for the national team, will be aiming to guide his team to an unprecedented 16th Copa America title this term.

His teammate Angel Di Maria is hanging up his boots after this match, so he should be staying this match alongside the skipper. Messi and Di Maria will be supported by equally impressive players, with the likes of Emiliano Martinez, Cristian Romero, Rodrigo De Paul, and Julian Alvarez all set to play key roles.

Argentina Predicted XI:

Emiliano Martinez; Nahuel Molina, Cristian Romero, Lisandro Martinez, Nicolas Tagliafico; Angel Di Maria, Rodrigo De Paul, Enzo Fernandez, Alexis Mac Allister; Lionel Messi, Julian Alvarez

On the other hand, Colombia has been on a remarkable run. They are now unbeaten in their last 28 matches. The Cafeteros will be determined to end their 23-year wait for a second Copa America title. Their lineup is expected to feature a strong defensive unit.

Davinson Sanchez and Carlos Cuesta will be marshaling the backline. Whereas, the creative talents of James Rodriguez and the pace of Luis Diaz will be crucial in their attack. The final promises to be a mouth-watering affair. Both teams boast an array of world-class talent. Argentina's experience and the brilliance of Lionel Messi will be pitted against Colombia's youthful exuberance.

Colombia Predicted XI:

Camilo Santiago Arias, Davinson Sanchez, Carlos Cuesta, Johan Mojica; Richard Rios, Jefferson Lerma; Jhon Arias, James Rodriguez, Luis Diaz; Jhon Cordoba
