As part of one of the matches of the qualifying tournament for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the players of the national teams of Costa Rica and Panama will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this duel? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Costa Rica
In the second stage of selection for the 2022 World Cup, the Costa Rican national team made its way from the first place in the group. Such success gave hope for the best. The team was able to win all the matches and showed the maximum result. At the final tournaments of the world Championships, the "red-blue" performed 5 times, but this year Luis Suarez's team will not go to Qatar. For 8 rounds, today's hosts were able to get 2 wins and 3 draws, which brought 9 points, which is 5 less than today's opponent. In the last match, Costa Ricans defeated Honduras with a score of 2:1.
Panama hat
The Panamanian national team took part 6 times in the final tournaments of the Gold Cup, where last year the team failed to get out of the group. The second group stage of the selection for the 2022 World Cup is much better, where the Panamanians were able to record 4 victories and 2 peaceful outcomes in 8 rounds, which brought 14 points, which is only 2 less than the leader. In the last two matches, the "canalers" defeated Honduras and El Salvador. The attack line, which differed 11 times, also looks good.
Statistics and figures:
- Costa Rica is the favorite of the meeting;
- Costa Ricans have 2 wins in 5 matches;
- Panama has a 3-match unbeaten streak;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 0:0.
Forecast
The Costa Rica national team has already lost the chance to travel to Qatar. The team has serious problems with the attack, which will not allow the hosts to count on success. Our bet will be in favor of a zero handicap for the Panamanians.
