GOLD CUP 2021

Time to kick off yet another international tournament on Saturday. I love it, not much else on the radar in July.

El Salvador v Curacao

The opening game of the tournament I feel will be played cautiously as both nations will not want to lose having Mexico on tap and a winnable game versus Trinidad & Tobago.The past 5 head to head fixtures have all had 2 or fewer goals. This game screams draw & under however there is little value in both so I'm being creative here;

1. El Salvador/Curacao UNDER 2 @ 1.91/-110 (2u) Bet365

2. CS 1-1 @ 5.50/+450 (1/2 Unit) Bet365

3. CS 0-0 @ 6.50/+550 (1/2 Unit) Bet365

Well it looks like Curacao got shafted by Covid & were replaced by Guatemala plays 1-3 are void

Mexico v Trinidad

This will be Mexico's easiest game and I believe they destroy T&T. Mexico just beat Panama 3-0 & Nigeria 4-0. This fixture will be 3rd game in 9 days for Trinidad who barely got by French Guiana in penalty kicks. Lets add to that the fact that all the support will be pro Mexico.

1. Mexico -3 @ 2.62/+162 (1u) Bet365

Canada v Martinique

Even without David & Davies, Canada will be too much to handle for Martinique. The last Gold Cup these sides met and Canada won 4-0. Martinique have not even played a game since 2019.

2. Canada -2 @ 1.98/-102 (2u) Marathon

USA v Haiti

I see goals here. Haiti's last 2 games 6-1 & 4-1 wins where as the Americans 3-2 & 4-0 wins. Haiti is really bad at defending so I see a 4-1 type of match.

3. USA/Haiti OVER 3.5 @ 2.03/+103 (1u) Pinnacle

Guatemala v El Salvador

Guatemala are lucky to be here after CONCACAF invited them as the highest seed with the Covid issues by Curacao. These sides just met a few weeks ago with a 0-0 scoreline and I think we see a little of that today as well.

4. Guatemala/El Salvador UNDER 1.5 @ 2.30/+130 (1u) Marathon

Tailed them all DJ

Well Mexico & the US pretty much shit the bed

hoping for better results fun boys

Jamaica v Suriname

Both sides have really decent attacking talent in their squad. Suriname have scored 17 goals in their past 5 games, where as Jamaica have averaged 2.25 goals scored since the last Gold Cup in 2019. The last meeting between these sides ended with a 2-1 win for Jamaica.

5. BTTS YES @ 2.20/+120 (1u) Bet365

DJ--like the BTTS in the Jamaica match-good luck!

Costa Rica v Guadeloupe

Costa Rica are a very old squad with 10 players on the wrong side of 30. Led by 35 year old Bryan Ruiz they are winless in their last 11 games. Guadeloupe are made up of mostly lower division French leaguers but they have 6 straight wins and I expect them to give Costa Rica a hard time.

6. Guadeloupe +2.5 @ 2.00/100 (2u) Pinnacle

@DiamondJack

 Any thoughts on the Over 2.5 on this? I don't have BTTS but can get Suriname TT O.5 at -110  

@LaffyTaffy

 I think it goes over just did not like the price of 1.80/-125

DJ good luck bro i took Jamaica tt ova 1.5

Panama v Qatar

Qatar are a team that is very familiar with each other as many are teammates at club level in Qatar. They are also the Asian federation champs and look to impress at the World Cup. Panamas defense is old and may have problems with Qatar's speed. I think this is a feeler game as both will play not to lose having a very winnable match versus Granada. I like the draw here

7. Panama/Qatar to DRAW @ 3.29/+229 (1/2u) Pinnacle

DJ - Any thoughts on who will lift the cup? 

@wolfeman3

 Most likely Mexico but there is no value on any futures

Honduras v Granada

Honduras come into the match having just tied Mexico where as Granada lost to Antigua & Montserrat. The Spice boys (I'm not kidding) off Granada are ranked 160th in the world alongside the soccer powerhouses like Fiji & Tahiti. Honduras should roll here;

8. Honduras -2.5 @ 1.83/-120 (1u) Pinnacle

Exciting Draw I’m the Quatar/Panama match!

 Congrats 

I’m on live so I’m gonna jump on Honduras -1.5 here at -115 

This game just went to -1/-1.5 Honduras if anyone frequents other sites
