Haiti will meet Peru on June 4 at CenturyLink Field, Seattle, WA; June 8 Haiti will face Brazil at the Orlando Citrus Bowl, Orlando, FL; and on June 12, the Haitian team will play against Ecuador at MetLife Stadium, East Ruthrford, NJ.

Patrice Neveu, the new French coach of the Haitian National Selection, who was present at the draw declared "[...] It's been two months since I took over the national team. I think that in the next three months, we still have the means, the opportunity to increase the potential of the team and find a bit of complementarity [...] in relation to draw and the opponents [... ] which are hierarchically superior at football level, we will attempt to give a good image of football and the people of Haiti through this Copa America.

This is a great event provided to be at the height of the event and is the coaching staff and players who will have to work hard to be ready the D-day [...] we should not be only spectators [...] we will have to fight firmly on the ground but I really rely on my players to be up. Each opponent has its specificities, but as an experienced coach I will try to outsmart our opponents at the maximum to get the best possible result."
