Brazil v Haiti
Haiti faces a must-win in this match, for a loss would eliminate them from the knockout round. Brazil could move into the top spot with a win, if Peru loses or ties against Ecuador (except they may lose a goal-differential tie-breaker). Therefore, Brazil will undoubtedly fight to get this win, to avoid having to face Colombia in the quarterfinals. And if Brazil is trying, no matter how hard Haiti works, they have no chance.
Prediction: Brazil wins 3-1
Ecuador v Peru
Ecuador v Peru. This match is a chance for Peru to clinch a spot in the knockout round, which they would do if they win. However, Ecuador cannot afford a loss in this match, as they would fall back in the race for a Top-2 finish. Ecuador may be slightly better, but Peru will play with confidence and determination after defeating Haiti in the opener. Therefore, I expect this match to finish as a draw, and both teams will have everything to play for in their next matches come Sunday.
Prediction: Draw at 1-1
