It's not the semifinal matchup we all expected, but I believe it will be the more entertaining of the two fixtures.
With a trip to the Gold Cup final on the line, my Mexico vs. Honduras predictions and Gold Cup free picks for Wednesday, July 2, break down why this showdown will deliver plenty of goals and incredible drama from the opening whistle.
Given the current price on the total goals market, you need to seize this strong profit opportunity.
Mexico vs Honduras picks and predictions
My Mexico vs Honduras best bet: Over 2.5 goals (-118 at bet365)
Mexico are no strangers to playing well in the Gold Cup. They've advanced to the Finals in three straight tournaments, winning five out of the last eight times.
On paper, Wednesday's fixture vs. Honduras looks like a one-sided affair, but that's what we thought about Canada/Guatemala and Panama/Honduras...
For Honduras to continue their Cinderella-type run to the Final, they'll need to find a way to slow down the El Tri attack, something I just don't see them doing.
They've given up eight goals through four games so far this tournament, and with Mexico's goalscoring record — they've scored at least two goals in three of four games — Honduras' defense will be tested.
That's why I like goals.
Mexico should dominate possession and continue to slot them home with ease, but as Honduras has shown, they have no issues scoring goals on their own.
Mexico vs Honduras same-game parlay (SGP)
Both teams to score — Yes
Raul Jimenez to score
Mexico moneyline
I'm slightly pivoting from my best bet here as the odds are a bit better with both teams to score than they are with Over 2 goals.
Honduras have an attack capable of troubling the El Tri defense, and a 2-1 Mexico win isn't out of the question.
If anyone is going to score for Mexico, it has to be Raul Jimenez, who has just one goal this tournament, but is no stranger to scoring big goals for his country on the biggest stages.
