The Venezuelan team has created an interesting surprise by being the early qualifier in Group B, instead of Ecuador or Mexico. In the final match, they will face Jamaica, a team that no longer has a chance to advance. Therefore, it will be an opportunity for coach Fernando Batista to make some final experiments before entering the important stage. Let’s come to the analysis and guide to participating in betting for the upcoming match between Jamaica vs Venezuela.
Analysis of Jamaica vs Venezuela from experts
The hottest name in the Venezuelan team right now is undoubtedly goalkeeper Rafael Romo. The 34-year-old player has shown to be experienced and reliable. He was the main factor in Venezuela’s victory over Mexico, successfully saving a series of goal attempts, including a penalty kick by Orbelin Pineda.
The experienced players are still bringing strength to Venezuela in this year’s Copa America. While they have a very reliable goalkeeper in Raphael Romo at the back, Salomon Rondon is the standout player in the attack. Despite being 34 years old, Rondon is still playing remarkably well. He was the one who earned a penalty and successfully converted it to secure 3 points for Venezuela.
On the other hand, Jamaica is lacking a true leader. Although they have good forwards, they lack someone who can connect the team together. Despite frequently using 3 central midfielders, Heimir Hallgrimsson’s players still struggle to control the game.
In addition, Jamaica’s lack of experience is also a downside. Goalkeeper Jahmali Waite had a great game against Mexico, but in the latest match, he delivered a rather poor performance. Other players also often appear hesitant in ball handling. This is the reason why Jamaica is unable to advance in this year’s Copa America.
Overview of past head-to-head records of Jamaica vs Venezuela
So far, Jamaica and Venezuela have faced each other a total of 5 times. Despite often being considered the underdog, Jamaica has a relatively good record. They have defeated their opponents twice and suffered 3 losses to Venezuela.
Odds for Jamaica vs Venezuela
With a match where a draw is enough to top Group B, coach Fernando Batista will surely give more opportunities to young players. One of the most anticipated stars is Cristian Casseres. In the match against Mexico, the 24-year-old midfielder made a significant contribution to Venezuela’s good performance against the opponent.
Casseres showed good understanding with Venezuela’s left winger, Jon Aranburu, more than his senior teammate Jefferson Savarino. Both created significant pressure on the left flank. Eventually, from a situation on the left, Rondon received the ball and was fouled in the penalty area, earning a penalty for Venezuela. On the opposite side, HLV Heimir Hallgrimsson is certainly missing Leon Bailey. If he can have the service of the player from Aston Villa, perhaps Jamaica will have more sharp attacks on the wing. In both of the recent matches, Jamaica used a lot of crosses from the wings. However, the accuracy is almost non-existent.
– Tài tỉ số (Over/Under bet): Jamaica’s defense has been exploited a lot in the recent match. Surely those weaknesses will continue to be targeted by Venezuela. Therefore, the Over bet is still bringing a lot of confidence to the experts analyzing the Jamaica vs Venezuela odds.
– Choose Venezuela -0.5: The odds of Venezuela -0.5 have been offered by the bookmakers for the match in the final round of Group B of this year’s Copa America. The fact that they no longer have the right to advance will make the fighting spirit of Jamaica not as passionate. At that time, choosing the upper side is a good option to consider.
