Mexico vs Canada Prediction & Betting tips
Does Mexico underline its role as a favorite on Matchday 2 of the Gold Cup? Actually, there are usually a duel between the US and Mexico in the continental championships of North and Central America. Now that the Americans are building a new squad after the missed 2018 World Cup, it looks like El Tri is already on the way to winning the title. The opening victory against Cuba was only a matter of form. In general, the group A for the Mexicans seems to be just a casual Aufgalopp. Whether this is really so, will probably show up in the night of Thursday, when Mexico meets Canada.
The Mexicans drew a victory over Cuba on matchday one. Canada also had no difficulty in defeating Martinique. Both are at the top of the classification with three points each. For the two underdogs, however, it will hardly be enough for the quarter-finals, because unlike other ongoing tournaments, there is no regulation at the Gold Cup, which helps a best runner-up or third in the next round. First and second place, point out. Although there is no direct comparison in the Gold Cup, but the winner of this duel between the winners of the first match day, will certainly be able to plan for the quarter-finals. In the duel between Mexico and Canada, the forecast clearly goes in the direction of a victory for the Mexicans. In this encounter will show how far the maple leaves are currently. The alignment is fully designed for the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in Canada, Mexico and the US. The Canadians are so, they should only watch 2022, after 40 years of abstinence again at a World Cup with it. If we want to stay current, then a match between Mexico and Canada seems to be the best bet on El Tri’s victory. The match-up for the 2019 Gold Cup between Mexico and Canada at Denver’s Sports Authority Field will begin on Wednesday night at 3:00 am (CET).
Mexico:
Mexico has an incredibly large pool of top players. Although we do not notice it that much in Central Europe, the Mexican Primera Division is perhaps one of the ten best leagues in the world. It pays well, so many great players continue to play at home. In addition, there are numerous exports all over the world, which are taking another step in the development there. Mexico therefore has the opportunity to replace players with big names. Miguel Layun, Jorge Sanchez, Hiring Lozano and Jesus Manuel Corona were actually scheduled for the Gold Cup but are all injured. Javier Hernandez, Marco Fabian, Hugo Ayala or Hector Herrera are all not involved. Nevertheless, Mexico is the top favorite on the title. That’s because of the impressive results in the last few games. The Mexicans have beaten half South America in friendly matches. Therefore, it is probably before the duel between Mexico and Canada only to take the odds of a victory of the Central Americans under the magnifying glass.
In addition, you can not get into a tournament any better than Mexico. At the beginning there was a brilliant 7-0 victory against Cuba. Admittedly, the Cubans are not the big touchstone, but with 7: 0 you have to defeat this team once. Player of the game was the young Uriel Antuna of LA Galaxy, who should actually be removed from the squad, but it has managed due to the injuries of colleagues anyway in the final squad.
With three goals he was the most successful shooter of El Tri. The other goals were contributed by Raul Jimenez (2), Andres Guardado and Alexis Vega. Coach Gerardo Martino was naturally happy about this win, but obviously knows how to classify it well, because much weaker teams will not meet the Mexicans at this Gold Cup. Already against Canada expects the former coach of FC Barcelona a very different game. However, he has already let it resonate that he is not a fan of rotation and therefore Mexico will probably go with identical lineup in the second group match.
Canada:
John Herdman is an Englishman by nationality, but somehow he’s the jack of all trades in Canadian football. The ladies he has led to the advanced world class and has now taken over a year and a half ago, the men. Unlike last, this team has the potential to go far in the Gold Cup. The ice hockey players will not be able to compete in their home country, but kicking with the round leather is increasingly becoming a popular sport. This is also because the Canadians have won their few internationals last all. Six victories are available for the maple leaves. But before the collective astonishment starts – the opponents were US Virgin Islands, Guyana, St. Kitts & Nevis, Dominica or Martinique. In this series we can not interpret too much quality into the Canadians. That means we will not be able to predict El Tri before the kick-off between Mexico and Canada.
The ticket for the quarterfinals should be within reach. After the opening victory against Martinique is another success in the final group match against Cuba. The game against the Mexicans is only a bonus. If the Canadians can still prevail, then even the group victory is possible. Again briefly to the match against Martinique. Jonathan David scored twice for a 2-0 lead. Junior Hoilett and Scott Arfield increased to 4: 0.
Bayern’s youngster Alphonso Davies was just as in the starting eleven as the veteran Atiba Hutchinson, who left a secure impression in the defense. Coach John Herdman was very pleased and explained where his players got the inspiration for this Gold Cup. For the first time with the Toronto Raptors namely a club from Canada won the title in the NBA. These are the role models that Canadian footballers are now emulating.
