Bookmaker Ratings prediction three: Canada -2 goals handicap – 1.92
Canada to Win the First Half
In their last three home games which were in the World Cup qualifiers, Canada were leading at halftime. Those matches were against Jamaica the USA and Mexico. Thus we predict Canada to be ahead in this match before the break.
Both Teams to Score No
Both teams scored in Canada’s only two of their last ten fixtures. For Curacao, that figure stands at three out of ten and the stats show a 25% possibility to see both teams score in this match.
Canada -2 Goals Handicap
Canada’s seven of the last ten matches played at home ended with two or more goal margin wins. Moreover, playing on home soil, Canada score on average 2.6 goals and concede 0.4 goals per game.
After a 36-year wait, Canada qualified for the Qatar 2022 World Cup after a great World Cup qualifying campaign. With eight wins four draws and two defeats, The Reds finished the final stage qualifications on top of the eight-team group with 28 points.
This will be Canada’s second World Cup appearance after 1986 when they lost all of their three matches in the group stage. Nonetheless, coach John Herdman’s team reached their best-ever FIFA Ranking position at 33 this year and look to be keen to have a fine World Cup.
This will be Canada’s first match in the Concacaf Nations League of the 2022/23 season. Notably, The Reds haven’t played a game since their last WCQ match against Panama when they lost 1-0 last March.
Curacao, on the other hand, entertained the group’s third team Honduras twice already losing and winning a game. In fact, La Pantera Azul lost at home to Honduras but returned the favor and beat them in San Pedro Sula (Honduras) on Tuesday.
Coach John Herdman would prefer to play against tougher oppositions to prepare for the World Cup. Surely, that is planned for upcoming friendlies but Canada can experiment with new players in this match. Nevertheless, we think Herdman’s team are too strong for Curacao and might as well take the lead before halftime.
