The USA's last game was a 1-1 draw with Brazil, with captain Christian Pulisic scoring their goal. They will be looking to get off to a winning start in Group C of the 2024 Copa America, which also includes Panama and Uruguay.

The USA's squad features a mix of youth and experience. Pulisic, who is just 19, and 27-year-old Joe Corona are the most experienced on the international level with 20 caps each. Jorge Villafana joins after winning the Liga MX title with Santos Laguna, while Pulisic and Weston McKennie had strong Bundesliga campaigns. Manchester United defender Matthew Olosunde and Werder Bremen forward Josh Sargent are also included in the squad, although Sargent has foot concerns and may not be ready to play.

• Bono (GK)
• Lichaj
• Carter-Vickers
• Miazga
• Villafana
• Corona
• McKennie
• Gooch
• Pulisic
• Green

The back line is anchored by Bolivar veteran Jose Sagredo, while his twin brother and club teammate Jesus Sagredo has also been playing for the national team. While Bolivia has many veterans in the squad, the anchor of the next generation is playmaker Ramiro Vaca, who has 34 caps and has scored four international goals.

• Viscarra (GK)
• Je. Sagredo
• Haquin
• Jo. Sagredo

USA vs Bolivia: Match prediction

The USA Men's National Team (USMNT) will be looking to get off to a winning start in their 2024 Copa America campaign against Bolivia, before facing Panama and Uruguay in their next games. Bolivia will also be keen to get a win under their belt, having lost three consecutive international friendly matches.

USMNT captain Christian Pulisic will be a key player to watch, having scored the equalising goal in their last game against Brazil, which ended in a 1-1 draw. Bolivia, meanwhile, are without their record goal scorer Marcelo Moreno, who has retired. Bolivia's head coach Antônio Carlos Zago has been searching for a new reliable striker, but so far, the team has only managed to score four goals in their last five matches in all competitions.

Looking at the odds, the bookmakers give the United States a heavy edge, with dabblebet offering 8/15 odds on a win for the Americans, a draw at 14/5, and a Bolivia win at 5/1.

In terms of the starting line-ups, for the USA, it's expected that Folarin Balogun will start up front, despite a slow start to his international career. There were also questions about how the U.S. would replace injured right-back Sergino Dest, but Joe Scally has stepped up with a pair of brilliant performances in warm-up matches. It's unclear if Josh Sargent, who has foot concerns, will be fit to play a role in the opening game.

For Bolivia, there has been a recent switch at goalkeeper, with 31-year-old Guillermo Viscarra winning the regular starting job over veteran Carlos Lampe. The back line is anchored by Bolivar veteran Jose Sagredo, and his twin brother, Jesus Sagredo, has also been part of the national team recently.

One source predicts a 2-0 win for the USA, while another predicts a 3-0 victory for the USMNT.
