Mexico vs El Salvador: Predictions and Odds for Thursday’s Game
El Salvador is the most acceptable opponent for Mexico in the CONCACAF region as nine of the last 10 games were won by Mexico.
Over 2.5 Goals
Seven of the last 10 games between the two clubs ended with three goals or more. Mexico already qualified for the World Cup and El Salvador lost all chances. This game will be played without any pressure so all of the players will show their best possible game. Mexico has the 4th best attack in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers while El Salvador has the 4th worse defense with 16 goals conceded in the last 13 games.
Both Teams to Score – No
Mexico’s penalty area is a real fortress thanks to the team captain and key goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa. Mexico has four consecutive clean sheets and has conceded only one goal in the last five games in the qualifiers. El Salvador has the 2nd most unproductive attack with only 8 goals scored so far.
News concerning Mexico and El Salvador’s teams
The two managers will be delighted that there are no injuries or suspensions in their teams.
Mexico’s Lineup
Guillermo Ochoa was the key reason behind Mexico’s amazing defensive run – four consecutive clean sheets. He made 11 saves in the last four games. Edson Alvarez, who plays for Ajax Amsterdam, was voted MVP in the game against Honduras as he scored the winning goal.
El Salvador’s Lineup
Mario Gonzalez must take the blame for El Salvador’s poor defensive performances recently. He conceded at least one goal in the last three games. Cristian David Gil Hurtado scored the last goal for El Salvador in the game against Costa Rica and chances are he will be the main man in the attack for the team against Mexico.
