United States vs Guatemala Preview and Team News
United States Team News
Mauricio Pochettino’s new-look squad continue their CONCACAF Gold Cup campaign on Thursday, as they take on Guatemala in the semi-finals. The USA have been professional rather than flashy on their way to this stage, with the only exception coming in the form of their big win over Trinidad and Tobago.
Pochettino will want to avoid making the same mistakes as they did on Sunday evening when they were forced to battle back from a goal down against Costa Rica.
The USA were guilty of being lacklustre in the final third, recording just four shots on target despite accumulating 18 efforts. Diego Luna’s pace will be a key factor once again on Thursday. The winger has been the standout player in the final third in the penalty shootout success in the previous round.
United States predicted lineup vs Guatemala (4-2-3-1): Freese; Freeman, Richards, Ream, Arfsten; Adams, De La Torre; Berhalter, Tillman, Luna; Agyemang
Guatemala Team News
Guatemala have already exceeded all expectations to reach this stage of the Gold Cup.
The nation overcame Guadeloupe and Jamaica in the group stage, before upsetting the odds to handle ten-man Canada in the quarterfinals following a penalty shootout success.
Guatemala’s ability to play on the counter-attack was their biggest strength on Sunday. Rubio Rubin delivered the moment of magic to level the scores with just 20 minutes remaining.
The nation’s defensive play has been excellent so far. Their low-block will be vitally important in this clash with one of the most talented attacking nations on Thursday.
Guatemala predicted lineup vs United States (4-3-3): Hernandez; Herrera, Pinto, Samayoa, Morales; Robles, Rosales, Munoz; Escobar, Rubin, Santis
Bet hereUnited States vs Guatemala Prediction
- Pick: United States
- Odds: 1.30 (22Bet)
- Correct score prediction: United States 2-0 Guatemala
The tournament has opened up for Pochettino’s men, and they look to be the logical selection when making a United States vs Guatemala prediction.
Despite not being the most extravagant in terms of performance, they’ve been efficient in their play. Guatemala defended well against Canada in the previous round. But they were fortunate to be playing against ten men for the second period.
The USA boasts an excellent record against their rivals, and therefore, a win for the hosts looks like the standout bet.
United States vs Guatemala Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Under 2.5 Goals
- Odds: 2.32 (22Bet)
Following their big victory over Trinidad and Tobago, the USA have been more efficient, winning two of their games by one-goal margins.
A slightly more conservative approach has been adopted in their previous three matches, despite conceding twice to Costa Rica on Sunday. A similar approach is likely on Thursday, meaning a professional 2-0 win could ensure that there is value in the under 2.5 goal selection.
