Mexico to show their dominance

Mexico got their Gold Cup campaign off to a disappointing start with a goalless draw against Trinidad and Tobago but were able to put that result behind them with a 3-0 win over Guatemala to all but put them through to the knockout stage of the competition. That victory showed their dominance and they will be looking to assert that further against another nation well below them in the world rankings.

El Salvador are the current leaders of Group A with 2-0 wins over both Guatemala and Trinidad and Tobago securing their passage to the next round of the cup. This match represents a much tougher challenge for the side though as they come up against a Mexican side with some serious talent. Qualification to the knockout stages of the competition is a big victory for the El Salvadorians though and the pressure is off in this final group game.

Mexico look way too strong for their opponents in this contest and we’re backing them to pick up a handsome win to ensure they top the group. We can’t see them conceding in this tie and we’re backing them to beat the handicap, currently at -1.5, as our main prediction for this game. Mexico will be looking to throw down a marker to the other leading nations in the competition and we’re forecasting a 3-0 win for the side.
