Jamaica vs El Salvador: Predictions and Betting Lines
Will Jamaica’s star winger Leon Bailey be able to carry his team to victory against El Salvador? We believe that even with such a great player like Bailey on the home squad, the outcome of this game will be the following:
Draw
In the last 10 games between Jamaica and El Salvador, we saw four victories for Jamaica, five draws, and one victory for El Salvador. After 11 games played so far, Jamaica is semi-last and has three consecutive losses in a row and two draws in the last five games in the tournament. El Salvador is in the 6th position and has performed slightly better in the last games – three losses, one draw, and one win.
Under 2.5 Goals
These are the teams with the worst attacks in the tournament. The only one that is performing worse than them is Honduras – only six goals in 11 games. The head-to-heads hints at a low goal-scoring game on Friday as well as nine of the last 10 games ended with only two or fewer goals.
Squad Insight for Jamaica and El Salvador
Both managers will face significant attacking issues for this clash.
Jamaica’s Lineup
The main trouble for coach Paul Hall is the absence of the star attacker and West Ham’s star Michail Antonio. The striker is undoubtedly the key man for the team but he was not named in Jamaica’s squad as the coach wanted to give him a break. We are expecting the main creative chances for Jamaica to be made by Leon Bailey.
El Salvador’s Lineup
Nelson Bonilla is the key man for El Salvador’s attack but he will miss this game due to an injury. We are expecting the young Styven Vasquez to take the opportunity and perform well in this game. Right-back Alex Roldan will appear in this game in a good mood as he was the scorer for El Salvador in the last game against Jamaica.
