Mexico will play Bolivia as each team kicks off their Copa America 2015 campaigns at the Estadio Sausalito in Vina del Mar on Friday night. Mexico will be hoping to get their competition off to the perfect start with a solid performance and all three points, however, opening games have a tendency to not always go as planned for the bigger teams, and they will have to make sure they hit the ground running once the whistle blows on Friday night to ensure there are no slip-ups.

Tonight's big Copa America 2015 game between Mexico and Bolivia has a scheduled start time of 7.30 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the beIN Sports network. The game can also be watched online through live stream via the link provided below.

Group A will be a tight one, and that makes today's game all the more important for both teams. An opening game loss for either would put big pressure on them to claim wins in their next two games, where as a win would alleviate some of the pressure to come.

With Chile and Ecuador also in Group A, Mexico will know how important all three points are today. Chile are hosting this year's tournament, and as hosts will be extremely difficult to defeat. They managed to go as far as Mexico in last year's World Cup in Brazil, with the Mexicans and Chile getting knocked out in the Round of 16.

Ecuador are also a team not to be written off. They qualified for last year's World Cup, and will be a challenge to all teams they come up against.

When Chile and Ecuador met in Thursday's tournament opener, Chile came out on top with a solid 2-0 win. Mexico will want to follow suit and claim all three points against Bolivia today so that they continue to compete for the Group A top spot and potentially an easier route through the tournament once the knock out stages begin.

Eyebrows were raised by some when Mexico announced their squad for this year's Copa America tournament, as they clearly left out a number of their top European-based players. The strategy being to save them for this year's Gold Cup tournament, which kicks off after the Copa America.

Miguel Herrera clearly has seen the Gold Cup as the priority, however, there's no doubt that the players in the Mexico squad for this tournament will be in it to win it. But whether the quality of the squad they've brought to this Copa America can compete with other teams at full strength remains to be seen.

Realistically, most pundits would see Chile as the clear winners of Group A - having the stronger squad, as well as being the host nation. That means Mexico may find themselves fighting it out for second spot against Bolivia and Ecuador. Again, that means today's game is very important for the Mexicans to claim all three points.
