Copa America 2024 Group A: Teams, table, standings, schedule, results for Argentina and other nations

Group A of the Copa America 2024 sees holders Argentina as the top-sided seed.

Their opponents in the opening phase of the tournament will be determined by the draw, which takes place on December 7, 2023 at 7:30 p.m. ET at the James L. Knight Center in Miami, Florida.
