Our Prediction for Canada vs El Salvador
In 2022, Canada finally returned to the World Cup, though they lost all their matches there. However, that was followed by new successes, confirming the team’s solid current level: a Copa America semifinal last year and third place in the Nations League in the spring. A spot at the 2026 World Cup is already secured, so in June they played a friendly tournament, confidently beating Ukraine and drawing 0-0 with Ivory Coast.
The El Salvador national team won five of their six matches in the Nations League in 2024. However, their results in subsequent friendlies weren’t as strong. In June’s qualifiers, after a 3-0 away victory against Anguilla, they were limited to a draw at home with Suriname. Still, both teams assuredly advanced to the next round of qualifying.
At the Gold Cup, Jesse Marsch’s side started against Honduras in Vancouver and convincingly defeated what seemed to be a strong opponent, 6-0. They then faced Curaçao, ending in a goalless draw. The Central American side began against Advocaat’s team, with both sides failing to score for a 0-0 result. In the second round, they lost to their neighbors with no chance, 0-2.
