Copa America Schedule 2016: Live Stream, TV Info, Odds for Monday Group Fixtures

Argentina will take on Chile at the 2016 Copa America on Monday in a repeat of last year's final.

The two sides—respectively ranked first and fifth in the world by FIFA—will take the field at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, at 10 p.m. ET.

Before they kick off, Group D's other sides, Panama and Bolivia, play Orlando, Florida, seeking to get off to a good start before facing two of the tournament's favourites on Friday.

Read on for a preview of Monday's action, but first, here's a look at the schedule and odds for both games:

Time (ET/BST)	Fixture	Home	Draw	Away
7 p.m./12 a.m. (Tuesday)	Panama vs. Bolivia	15-13	11-5	16-5
10 p.m/3 a.m. (Tuesday)	Argentina vs. Chile	21-20	13-5	10-3

Fox Sports will televise the matches in the U.S. The action can also be streamed live at Fox Soccer 2GO (U.S.) and FuboTV (Global).

Panama vs. Bolivia

Panama aren't expected to reach the latter stages of the tournament—and indeed, they aren't likely to make it out of Group D with Chile and Argentina around.

However, Los Canaleros have been quietly impressive at the CONCACAF Gold Cup in recent years. Last year, they finished third, and in 2013, they got all the way to the final before losing to the U.S. That should stand them in good stead for their Copa America debut.

Per Goal's Jack Davies, Panama midfielder Armando Cooper said ahead of the game: "We want to do things in a good way on the day of the match against Bolivia. We are doing things well. We are all good; we're healthy. We want to impose our style and form. We hope that on the day of the match against Bolivia we can do that and more."

La Verde are the lowest-ranked team at the Copa but beat Ecuador in the tournament last year to get out of the group stage—the first time they had done so since 1997.

Bolivia have lost their last four matches in a run stretching back to November. So their preparation has been far from ideal, and that could prove costly here.

Argentina vs. Chile

Despite the array of attacking talent on display, Argentina's meeting with Chile in last year's Copa final ended 0-0, with La Roja claiming the trophy on penalties. 

Though a draw would do neither's chances of reaching the knockout stages any harm, with both likely to beat Panama and Bolivia, this match will have a big say on which team qualifies on top.

Bleacher Report UK's Sam Tighe believes Argentina are the best team in the tournament on paper:

The tournament will be a huge one for Lionel Messi, who is bidding to bring international glory to La Albiceleste for the first time in his career.

However, it is arguably Gonzalo Higuain who has the most to prove. Per Bleacher Report UK, the Napoli striker was in imperious form in Serie A this season:

The 28-year-old has endured difficulties with Argentina in recent years, though, as he fluffed big chances in both the 2014 World Cup final and the Copa final last year, as well as missing penalty in the shootout of the latter.

The Guardian's Sid Lowe reflected on the impact of those misses at the time:

If he's to silence critics of his performances on the international stage, Higuain must maintain the form he displayed domestically.

Scoring against Chile will be no easy feat, however, as La Roja are a tenacious and hardworking side.

With Gary Medel and Gonzalo Jara in the defence and Barcelona's Claudio Bravo in goal, Chile have a solid platform to build from, and the likes of Arturo Vidal and Alexis Sanchez ahead of them both add quality and work rate in abundance.

Monday's match will offer a valuable insight into where the two sides are at and perhaps provide a clearer picture of their chances of winning the tournament.
