Venezuela vs Mexico Predictions

• Mexico had lost three of their four games before struggling against Jamaica in their opener
• Venezuela secured a surprise 2-1 win over a much-hyped Ecuador team
• The South Americans have lost just one of their first six World Cup qualifiers

Venezuela to build on excellent start

Venezuela sprung a surprise in their opening game, winning 2-1 against a highly-rated Ecuador team. They were expected to struggle to get out of Group B at the Copa America, but their second game offers them a chance to book their place in the next round.

Venezuela meet a Mexico side who toiled against Jamaica, taking well over an hour to break the deadlock in a 1-0 win. Mexico had entered the tournament following three defeats in four, so they may not last long at this tournament with two big tests on the horizon.

Meanwhile, Venezuela have made an impressive start in their bid to make the 2026 World Cup, losing just one of their first six matches in a difficult qualifying campaign. With Mexico failing to impress and making a slow start to this group, take Venezuela to get something from this game and boost their hopes of progressing to the next round.
