Costa Rica vs Martinique prediction for Wednesday’s CONCACAF Gold Cup round three fixture at Red Bull Arena in Harrison. The game will start at 00:30 UTC.
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Over 1.5 Goals – 1.32
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Draw in at Least One Half – 1.55
Four of Costa Rica’s previous five matches at all levels produced under 3.5 goals; the same goes for Martinique. Likewise, the last two meetings between these teams also ended with three or fewer goals.
This is a critical game for both teams in their quest for qualifying for the next round. As a result, we expect a tactical game from both teams which may lead to both teams creating few chances. In addition, four of Costa Rica’s last five matches saw a draw in at least one half.
Costa Rica
With one point from two games, Costa Rica are facing elimination for the first time in eight editions from the group stage if they don’t win this match. Los Ticos were marginally the better side in their draw against El Salvador with 12 goal attempts of which three were on target.
Martinique
Martinique need a draw to reach the quarter-finals for the first time in five editions. Les Matinino won one and drew another of their two games in the GC so far. In their second game, Martinique got overplayed by Panama having just 30% of ball possession.
