Prediction: Australia 0-1 Bolivia
Australia is also a good team and that is why they have been invited to play this edition of Copa America after Qatar. This is the second involvement of Qatar, having previously played in the 2019 edition, and this is the competition debut for Australia to take part in Copa America. In Addition, Australia is also the winner of the Asia Cup in 2015. They have themselves a pretty good that fight against any team in the Copa. Even though they are an invited team and yet they are playing really well in other continents condition.
On the other hand, Bolivia is also a good team but not as good as other contestants in Group A. Bolivia has some good players in their team and particularly they have a strong forward with Juan Carlos, Gilberto Alvarez, Vladimir Castellon and so on. And in addition, their midfield and defense is also quite strong. Lately, the Bolivia team is quite good but in their last 2 matches, they have lost. The team has good potential in themselves, if they can give their best, they might have a good chance to win the next match.
In my prediction, I think Bolivia is going to win the upcoming match in the 2020 Copa America group match against Australia by 1-0.
