Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
---------------------------------
Canada and Guatemala will face off in the first CONCACAF Gold Cup quarter-final on Sunday in Charlotte. Canada topped Group B after beating El Salvador, while Guatemala finished second in Group C following a close win over Guadeloupe.
Team Analysis:
Guatemala reached the Gold Cup quarter-finals after a tough match against Guadeloupe, marking their fourth appearance in the last eight this century, but they have yet to win at this stage. They perform well when scoring first but struggle when conceding early. Their coach, Luis Fernando Tena, has never beaten a North American team.
Canada topped their group with a strong defensive showing and are on a six-match unbeaten streak. Despite past struggles in quarter-finals, Canada has recently advanced beyond this stage and holds a strong record against Guatemala, winning four of their last five meetings.
Player Situation:
Five Guatemalan players remain consistent in the starting lineup, with goalkeeper Nicholas Hagen close to his 50th cap. Key players like Jose Carlos Pinto and Olger Escobar have contributed important goals.
Canada faces injuries with Jonathan Osorio out and Ali Ahmed sidelined, but Stephen Eustaquio may return. Cyle Larin and Kamal Miller are approaching major appearance milestones, while Jonathan David and Tajon Buchanan continue to be key goal scorers for Canada.
Result Prediction:
Guatemala hasn’t scored against Canada in over 20 years, while Canada has proven effective against the physical and defensive style typical of Central American teams like Guatemala.
Predicted Result: Guatemala 0-2 Canada.
