Why you should back Mexico

Prior to Friday’s setback, El Tri had dropped just one of their 11 matches following their 3-0 loss to the United States in the 2022-23 Nations League semifinals. They scored three or more goals in four of those contests and posted six clean sheets, and they’ll need another big offensive surge to advance past the Hondurans. One of those high-scoring games came against Honduras, a 4-0 victory in the group stage of this year’s Concacaf Gold Cup back in June.

Luis Romo recorded a brace in that triumph, while fellow midfielders Orbelin Pineda and Luis Chavez also converted. Uriel Antuna did not score against the Hondurans but entered the first leg having scored for the national team in three consecutive international friendlies. Forward Raul Jimenez, whose next goal will tie him with Carlos Hermosillo for fifth place on Mexico’s all-time list with 34, also entered the competition on a hot streak as he netted four goals over his previous four matches with the national team. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back Honduras

The Hondurans are coming off their first victory in a Concacaf quarterfinal match since defeating Costa Rica 1-0 in the 2013 Gold Cup. Their win on Friday marked the first time they both converted against and defeated Mexico since October 2017, as they were outscored 11-0 in their previous four meetings. Honduras have posted four consecutive clean sheets and allowed a total of one goal over their last six contests, including an international friendly against Guatemala prior to the start of Nations League play.

Anthony Lozano and Bryan Rochez both made it back-to-back games with a goal on Friday, with the former opening the scoring in the 30th minute and the latter capping it in the 72nd. The 30-year-old Lozano is tied for 10th in the Nations League with three goals while Luis Palma shares second place with three assists. Midfielder Edwin Rodriguez has been a key offensive contributor as he has converted twice and notched a pair of assists. See which team to pick here.
