Argentina begin their defense of the 2021 Copa America title in Atlanta, facing off against tournament debutants Canada to start this summer's matches.
Lionel Messi's side head to the Mercedes-Benz Stadium and the Argentine forward is in scintillating form for both club and country, with 12 goals in 12 matches for Inter Miami and bagging a brace for Argentina in their last friendly against Guatemala.
Lionel Scaloni is trying to see the Argentina national team to back-to-back titles in this competition for the first time since 1993.

For Jesse Marsch's side it would be an incredible achievement to qualify from their group given Chile and Peru are the other two sides in Group A.

Lionel Scaloni's side have made a slight change in recent weeks as they've opted for a 4-4-2 formation with Lionel Messi partnering Lautaro Martinez up top.

Since Jesse Marsch took charge of the Canada national team, they've used a 4-4-2 formation with Orlando City's Cyle Larin and Jonathan David leading the attack.
Inter Milan's Tajon Buchanan has been utilised out on the right with Derek Cornelius commanding from the back.
Canada projected starting lineup (4-4-2): Crepeau (GK) — Johnston, Bombito, Cornelius, Davis — Buchanan, Kone, Eustaquio, Millar — Larin, David.
