Who will get to the Gold Cup quarter finals?

During the group stage, major tournaments often see duels between favourites and underdogs. Here, too, the roles are clearly distributed. Because Mexico is qualitatively more occupied. Haiti would definitely be happy with a point too. However, one thing is certain: anyone who wins this duel on matchday 2 of the CONCACAF Gold Cups will have six points after two games and still have their ticket to the knockout stages. On Friday, June 30, 2023, two nations will fight at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, USA.

On the one hand, the impeccable form speaks for Haiti. After all, the nation has won six games in a row. However, in the next section, our experts will go over the opponents and the results. There it will be shown that these statistics should be treated with a little caution. Nevertheless, the Haitian national team is confident in the duel against Mexico. Otherwise, however, little speaks for Haiti. A look at the squad shows us that the quality is a lot inferior to the Mexicans. On the other hand, Haiti won the opening game. With three points in the account, the bus can be parked against the Mexican national team and played for a draw. Four points could theoretically be enough to advance. In addition, the last matchday is against Honduras.

Haiti form

We have already mentioned Haiti's impeccable record in recent weeks. In retrospect, of course, the 2-1 win over Qatar is listed first. Yes, this is a Gold Cup game. Qatar is loaded as a guest. In terms of converting chances, this win is okay. Previously, the CONCACAF Nations League saw a 3-1 win over Bermuda. We also look back on the 4-0 win over Montserrat and the 6-0 win over Guyana. Another match against Guyana ended 6:2. To complete the winning streak, we also want to mention the 3-2 over Montserrat. Only in further retrospect was there still the 0:0 as a guest against Bermuda to report. This makes it six games with wins and seven games without defeat in a row.

Mexico's form! 

Mexico's shape doesn't read quite as well as Haiti's. This is mainly due to the fact that we have to report a defeat - albeit based on the last nine matches. There are also three draws and five wins. So the performance is by no means bad. This is also shown by the victory on the first day of the Gold Cup. This was also so high that Mexico immediately took the lead in Group B. A draw should almost be enough to advance to the next round. With a win, the Mexicans are definitely there in the knockout phase. Regarding Haiti, we wrote of a broad chest. But the chest of the Mexicans is probably just as broad.

Of course, we don't want to withhold the form curve of the Mexicans from our loyal readers. On Matchday 1 of the Gold Cup, Mexico deservedly won 4-0 against Honduras. The Mexicans already finished with a 1-0 win over Panama in the Nations League. However, they were also shown their limits in the duel with the USA. The guest performance there ended with a 0:3. The Gold Cup will also be held in America this year. Another review shows a 2-2 draw in the friendly against Cameroon. There were also friendlies against Guatemala (2-0) and USA (1-1). At the 2022 World Cup, Mexico was over after the group stage, despite four points.

Haiti - Mexico: What to expect? 

Both opponents have met ten times on the soccer field since 1953. All games were competitive games in World Cup qualifiers, the Gold Cup or the CONCACAF Championship. In fact, Haiti have yet to beat Mexico. In total there were eight wins for the Mexicans. Consequently, two draws are listed. However, the most recent duel from the Gold Cup 2019 ended 0-0. Mexico finally won within overtime. So there is hope for Haitians.

Our first bet tip is on the Both2Score (both teams score) . Because although Mexico are clearly favored here, we think a goal from Haiti is likely. We take this from the good form of the nation. As for our second tip, we admit that it comes with a bit of risk. Because we bet on the draw X . Haiti already achieved this feat in the 2019 Gold Cup against Mexico. In addition, both nations would get four points with a draw and would therefore have a good starting position.
