Guatemala to progress
Guyana had been in largely indifferent form but two pretty inadequate performances have seen two defeats just last month. Given they're now coming up against a Guatemala side that are unbeaten in their last nine things aren't going to magically correct themselves. Guatemala have had a few draws in their recent run of form, which dates back to October, but six wins means they're more than capable of winning games. Guyana will be tasting defeat.
Not just a win but a clean sheet too
In our first prediction we've spoken about the nine game unbeaten stretch that Guatemala are on. There is more to their good form than simply winning and drawing matches though; they are simply not conceding goals – hardly at all. During the nine matches we've mentioned they've conceded just one goal. Even that was eight games and seven months ago. Consider that Guyana have failed to score in three of their last four matches and things look pretty bleak for them.
Don't expect goals all round
Our final tip isn't hugely different from our previous one. Well, the bet itself is but the logic as to how we made our prediction is largely similar; the good news though is that you'll be covered for a combination of bets be it a Guatemala win to nil, a goalless draw or a shock win to nil for Guyana. So, what are the stats behind this pick? Guatemala have gone 742 minutes without conceding a goal. Guyana meanwhile are currently sat on 189 minutes without a goal.

Will it be a comfortable day at the office for Guatemala?
Guatemala are just 90 minutes away from banking a tenth game unbeaten after recording three draws and six wins in their last nine. Ordinarily, they don't score shed loads of goals – albeit they did have ten players score a goal each in their recent 10-0 win against Saint Vincent and the Grenadines – but they do not concede many either. Nicholas Hagen will probably get the nod in goal with Jose Pinto the main name in the back four. As for scoring goals, Darwin Lom is the man; he has bagged five in seven. Guyana's form has been ropey – or in comparison to Guatemala's atrocious – but that doesn't mean they won't ask questions of their opponents; Trayon Bobb can be a handful and has scored four goals in his last five.
