Why Bet on Mexico?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mexico is by history the greatest Concacaf team and is the current Gold Cup champion. However, it has never been champion of the Nations League, <\/a>so it wants to get rid of the thorn in its side.\u00a0

The Mexican team defeated Panama 3-0 with goals by Juli\u00e1n Qui\u00f1ones, Edson \u00c1lvarez, and Orbel\u00edn Pineda. It was a resounding match for Jaime Lozano’s team.\u00a0 This result was very different from what happened in the quarterfinals, where they lost 2-0 in the first leg and won the second leg 3-0. The current situation of this team is somewhat irregular.\u00a0 <\/strong>

Recently, they have won two games, lost two, and drawn one, but a win against the United States could mark a turning point to get back on track, as when they won the Gold Cup last year.\u00a0

In addition, the Tri wants to end the U.S. paternity, as they have six games without beating them. \u00a0In this tournament, they were eliminated by the USA in the semifinals of last year’s edition (3-0) and the final of the previous one (3-2) with a penalty kick missed by Andr\u00e9s Guardado in the 120th minute.\u00a0 <\/strong>

Defender Juli\u00e1n Araujo will be out of the squad, while Juli\u00e1n Qui\u00f1ones and Johan V\u00e1squez are doubtful.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on the United States?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In recent years, the United States has become the most powerful team in CONCACAF and, as proof of this, is the two-time champion of the Nations League.\u00a0

To reach this final, the USMNT had to suffer, as it required extra time to overcome Jamaica 3-1. In addition, they advanced to the final 30 minutes with an own goal at the 90+6 minute, so they were only a few seconds away from elimination. The big star came from the bench, Haji Wright, who scored twice.\u00a0 <\/strong>

The United States did not have to play in the group stage and went straight to the quarterfinals, where they beat Trinidad & Tobago 4-2 in the series.\u00a0 <\/strong>

By name, there is no doubt that the great figure of the team is Christian Pulisic, who stands out in AC Milan and is one of the most experienced of the current squad. But special attention should be paid to Giovanni Reyna, who has not played much in the Premier League but who, in the match against Jamaica, came on in the second half and provided two assists. Likewise, several players are in the top European leagues and stand out, such as Folarin Balogun (Monaco), Weston McKennie (Juventus), and Yunus Musah (Milan).\u00a0

Josh Sargent is the big casualty of this set due to an injured ankle. Another aspect to follow is what coach Gregg Berhalter will do after the argument and even a push with midfielder Tyler Adams.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
