Canada vs Colombia Preview and Team News
Canada Team News
Canada have recently suffered a 0-1 defeat to Australia in Montréal. Before that encounter, they secured a 1-0 victory over Wales and a 3-0 win against Romania. However, they endured an unexpected setback against Guatemala, finishing 1-1 in regulation but losing 5-6 in a penalty shootout during the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Over the past year, Canada have delivered some impressive performances, including wins over the USA (2-1), Ukraine (4-2), and Honduras (6-0). Still, losses to Australia, Guatemala, and Ivory Coast have raised questions about their true strength as they prepare to co-host the World Cup in 2026.

Although the Canadians dominated by creating numerous goal-scoring opportunities and taking many more shots, the match against Australia indicated their main issue: a lack of clinical finishing and occasional vulnerability during pressing.
The biggest story for Canada is who won’t be on the pitch in the next outing. The team are struggling due to a series of injuries to three key defensive players.
Alphonso Davies remains sidelined with a long-term ACL injury. Just before this international window, central defender Moïse Bombito suffered a fractured tibia. Right-back Alistair Johnston is also unavailable as he recovers from a hamstring issue.

Jesse Marsch’s high-energy, high-pressing 4-4-2 system relies heavily on athletic and intelligent defenders who can maintain a high line and win their individual duels. The absence of Bombito and Johnston compromises the strength of this backline. As a result, Derek Cornelius and Luc de Fougerolles are expected to form a partnership in central defense, a combination that will face a big test.
The key player for Canada in midfield is Nathan-Dylan Saliba. Meanwhile, in attack, Jonathan David needs to rediscover his scoring touch, which has been inconsistent at the club level. Marsch has confirmed a rotation in goal, with Dayne St. Clair set to start after Maxime Crépeau featured against Australia.
Canada predicted lineup vs Colombia (4-4-2): St. Clair; Sigur, De Fougerolles, Cornelius, Laryea; Buchanan, Kone, Saliba, Shaffelburg; Larin, David.
Colombia Team News
Colombia have recently wrapped up a strong World Cup qualification campaign, securing third place and a spot in the final stage of the tournament.
Their style of play is fluid, confident, and backed by an extraordinary 28-game unbeaten run that only ended in a Copa América final loss to world champions Argentina.
In their most recent outing, the Colombians trashed a solid Mexico side 4-0, a performance marked by great finishing and dominance. Before that, they scored nine goals across matches against Venezuela (6-3) and Bolivia (3-0).

The core of the squad that excelled in World Cup qualifying and Copa América remains strong. The attack is led by the Bayern Munich winger, Luis Díaz, whose pace and skill can unsettle any defense. He’s supported by the creative genius of James Rodríguez, who continues to create big chances as the team’s key playmaker.
Meanwhile, the double pivot in midfield, likely featuring Jefferson Lerma and Kevin Castaño, provides a solid defensive play and a platform for launching attacks.
Veteran goalkeeper David Ospina is expected to lead the backline, which should include Jhon Lucumí, Davinson Sánchez, and Daniel Muñoz. The main uncertainty has been the central striker role, which head coach Nestor Lorenzo has rotated
Colombia predicted lineup vs Canada (4-2-3-1): Ospina; Munoz, Ditta, Lucumí, Angulo; Lerma, Castaño; Campaz, Rodriguez, Díaz; Hernandez.
Canada vs Colombia Prediction
- Pick: Colombia to win
- Odds: -113 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Canada 1-2 Colombia
A high defensive line from Canada creates a risk against the skills of James Rodríguez. His vision and passing ability can easily penetrate a press with a single pass. This could create excellent opportunities for Luis Díaz, which he can exploit by making timely runs behind the Canadian defenders.
Furthermore, Colombia are a far more organized and individually talented defensive unit than Australia. Breaking them down will require a level of precision and clinical finishing that Canada have recently lacked. Jonathan David is a top-class striker, but his confidence may be wavering.

Colombia, meanwhile, are a team that know how to win. Their long unbeaten run was no accident. It was built on discipline and great creativity in the final third. They are comfortable in possession and ready for a fast transition.
Expect them to penetrate Canada’s press and then strike quickly into the spaces left behind.
Canada vs Colombia Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total Over 2.5 Goals
- Odds: -145 (20Bet)
Canada can create opportunities through their pressing and the individual talents of players like David and Tajon Buchanan. After their disappointment in the match against Australia, they should be determined to win and are likely to find the back of the net.
However, their defensive issues make keeping a clean sheet against this Colombian attack seem almost impossible. The South American side have scored 14 goals in their last five outings and will be confident in adding to that tally. This points toward a high-scoring result.
