Costa Rica vs Mexico Prediction & Betting tips
Complicated but not ruinable a victory of the “ticos”, which in their National Stadium to overflow will be carried in volandas by 35,000 souls who want to tie the direct ticket to Russia in this match.
The costaricenses comes from winning 0-2 in the United States last Saturday, which has relaunched their options of being in Russia totally.
If they win the “tricolor” in this match have the ticket mathematically, but even a draw could be worth them although already depending on combinations in other stadiums.
Costa Rica :
Costa Rica, 2nd in the group with 14 points for the 17 of Mexico, has won 11 of their last 12 home games.
In this liguilla concretely in costaricense ground fell USA 4-0, tied Panama 0-0, and fell Trinidad and Tobago 4-1.
If there are no last-minute setbacks, the coach “tico”, Óscar Ramírez, will play in the National the same 11 that comes from surpassing USA at home.
There are several names recognized in the major European leagues. Starting with the goal of Real Madrid, Keylor Navas, who this year has won with his club almost everything that is possible to win in Spanish and European football.
Keylor Navas at the door, Kendall Waston, Johnny Acosta and Francisco Calvo; the sides Bryan Oviedo and Cristian Gamboa; in the middle Celso Borges, Daviz Guzman, Bryan Ruiz and Christian Bolaños, with Marco Ureña (bigoleador before USA on Saturday) as the only tip.
Mexico :
Very important for the pick that Mexico has just sealed its ticket for Russia, since after beating 1-0 to Panama in the Azteca Stadium became the 5th selection with assured presence in Russia.
We have against the pick obviously that the “tricolor” is full of great players who play in the best European leagues.
Talents such as Jesus Manuel “Tecatito” Corona, Hirving Lozano, Diego Reyes, Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez, Carlos Vela, Héctor Moreno, Guillermo “Memo” Ochoa, Raúl Jiménez, or Jonhatan Dos Santos.
Of course, has Mexican coach Juan Carlos Osoro the safe losses of Héctor Herrera, Jesus Dueñas and Néstor Araujo.
The Mexicans, once obtained the mathematical classification, consider as new challenges to tie the 1st place of the group, and also to finish the league without knowing the defeat.
But of course, those goals can never generate the same motivation in an athlete as to get a direct ticket for the World Cup, as will the “ticos” if they win this game.
We have against the pick that this same month of March Mexico won to Costa Rica 2-0, and above all that of the last 10 clashes between both selections Costa Rica only won 1.
