Mexico got off to an excellent start at the Gold Cup. In the first round, the Mexican team beat Honduras 4:0, and in the second round, they beat Haiti 3:1. With a two-round lead already guaranteed their place in the playoffs, the Mexicans did not give their all in the third round. The team was facing Qatar; they were considered the clear favorites and were better in the game but still managed to lose (0:1). However, Mexico still qualified for the playoffs as the group winners.

Costa Rica did not meet expectations at the tournament's start. The first round of the Gold Cup was a failure for them - a 1:2 defeat by Panama. Then, they drew 0:0 with El Salvador, which could also be considered a failure. Nevertheless, in some crazy match in the final round of the group stage, the Costa Ricans dramatically beat Martinique 6:4, thereby jumping into second place in the quartet table.

We think the Mexican team will be stronger in this match. It is obvious that the Mexicans are a class above the opponent, and their squad is much more powerful. They are well on their way to winning the trophy, and Costa Ricans are unlikely to be able to stop them with their resources. We suggest betting on a win for Mexico with the total under goals with reserve.
