Grab your notebooks and take notes, because there’s exciting football betting to be had!
Any respectable football team wants to win, and the four nations left in the Gold Cup definitely want to take home the bacon. Live betting forums are already flaring up on whether USA or Mexico will win the famous trophy.
However, it’s important to note that Costa Rica and Jamaica are red-hot as of late. They will be looking to smash betting odds against them and put on a memorable show for the American audience.
United States vs Costa Rica
If we look at the logistics of the match, it’s easy to say that Costa Rica are the underdogs in this semi-final. The AT&T Stadium will be full of USMNT Football supporters will be hounding on them every time they have the football.
The Stars and Stripes will need all the help they can get against Los Ticos: their last match was an embarrassing 4-0 loss in the World Cup qualifiers. Costa Rica have more than enough talent to trade blows with the Americans.
I believe this match will go down on who wants it more. Do the Americans have the fire to beat their talented guests and excite their fans? Do the Costa Ricans have the drive to see off a strong American team at home?
I personally think this game will go the distance and be decided on penalties. However, I see Costa Rica barely edging out USA, so make a bold punt on Costa Rica’s 3.65 1X2 odds.
Mexico vs Jamaica
These two sides may have drawn in Denver, but the game showcased just who was the side in charge was.
Brilliant defending and luck spared the Reggae Boyz from suffering a draw, but this El Tri delegation is hungry to get to the final and win another Gold Cup. They need goals from Romario Williams and Darren Mattocks to keep the Mexicans at bay.
Meanwhile, Juan Carlos Osorio’s lads have all the time in the world to score. They need to keep on pounding the Jamaican defence and turn unlucky misses into sure goals. These players need to dominate in this game if they want a shot at securing a spot in the World Cup squad.
I think Mexico are too talented a side for Jamaica. They will put up an admirable fight, but I think the difference in quality is just too big of a hurdle for Theo Whitmore to cover with goals.
If you’re feeling risky, go for Mexico -1.00 @ 1.97.
