Haiti v Mexico

Haiti vs Mexico Preview

The later kick-off in Group B concerns the top two nations in the group when Haiti and Mexico face each other at the State Farm Stadium with both teams sitting on three points apiece following wins in their respective opening games in the group phase of this competition.

An opening 2-1 win against invitees Qatar saw Haiti off to a winning start and this victory also became Haiti's sixth win on the trot in all competitions having previously racked up wins in the Nations League format with victories against Montserrat (home and away), Guyana (home and away) and Bermuda.

Goals have also been highly prominent recently in Haiti's games as each of their last six matches have resulted in Over 2.5 goals and no wonder, as a staggering total of 30 goals have been scored overall within these last six games!

On the Gold Cup front, Haiti possess a reasonable recent record as they have won six of their last nine games while six of these nine games also resulted in three goals or more being scored.

Mexico also got themselves off the mark in immediate fashion in their opening game in Group B when they registered a comprehensive 4-0 demolition of Honduras which quickly followed a 1-0 win against Panama in the Third Place play-off in the recent Nations League, so they too will be in confident mood heading into this top of the table encounter.

Mexico have also put together a promising run of results in recent times as they have suffered just the one defeat in their last nine matches overall in all competitions which came in the shape of a 3-0 loss to USA in the Nations League.

On the flip-side, Mexico have also gained five wins in the process by beating the likes of Saudi Arabia, Suriname, Guatemala, Panama and Honduras respectively, while goals have also come along for the ride with five of Mexico's last nine games having resulted in Over 2.5 goals being scored.

Haiti v Mexico Verdict

Mexico have held the upper hand in previous exchanges against their upcoming opponents, Haiti, as Jaime Lozano's side have won six of the last eight meetings and accordingly, Mexico have been priced as outright favourites in the straight win market by the bookmakers ahead of this upcoming clash at the State Farm Stadium.

Goals look highly likely though as both Haiti and Mexico have been involved in a number of high-scoring games of late, while two of the last three encounters between these two nations have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals as well.

Therefore, our main bet will be Over 2.5 goals @ 1.60
