Why Bet on Qatar
Qatar comes to this semifinal as the surprise of the tournament, without a doubt. Being an invited selection and using this tournament to prepare for the World Cup in 2022, nothing and nobody placed Qatar among the best 4 teams of the Gold Cup.
After surprising all football lovers in CONCACAF, in the first match drawing against Panama 3-3, Qatar became an invincible team and defeated Granada, resulting from 4-0 and Honduras 2-0.
After qualifying in the first place of Group D, they faced El Salvador in the quarterfinals, where they managed to defeat them in a perfect match, resulting from 3-2.
Why Bet on the USA
On the other hand, we always have the favorites in CONCACAF tournaments, United States. The Americans came to this Gold Cup intending to dethrone Mexico and repeat the dose used in the final of the last CONCACAF Nations Cup when they defeated the Mexicans.
The United States has had a fantastic Gold Cup, but their offense has been a bit off. Despite having scored 6 goals against Martinique, the other 3 matches they have played have won them by a minimum of 1-0, so this task is pending, and we will see if they solve it for these semifinals.
Final Betting Analysis: Qatar vs. the USA
An unprecedented match for all of us who follow the 2021 Gold Cup is between the USA and Qatar. This is mainly because Qatar was considered just a team that was testing the waters to see how its players ranked for the next World Cup to be held in their country in 2022.
The United States knows that, because of what Qatar has done in their last games, they cannot be trusted and have to go out and give it their all to reach the grand final and fight for the title of this edition of the Gold Cup.
While teams like Qatar who arrive unexpectedly at these instances arrive with great confidence and, above all, with a spirit with which they can hurt any team that stands up to them.
In the same way, Qatar will have a challenging task of passing the defense of the United States, so we predict a 3-0 victory for the USA.
