In its turn, in 2017 Costa Rica played six matches resulted in one victory, three draws and two defeats. Like Honduras, Costa Rica was defeated by Mexicans 0:2 on the road on the 25th of March. This loss was the first in this qualifying round as till then Costa Rica had got wins vs. Trinidad and Tobago 2:0 and vs. USA 4:0. Consequently Costa Rica occupies the second place in the group with six points gained and 6:2 goal difference.
Honduras and Costa Rica teams are more or less of the same level, alternating victories in their head-to-heads. Each game between these two rival teams runs in intense fighting. The fact that the teams managed to score more than two goals only in one match out of 10 recent head-to-heads is the best evidence of that. I believe that the forthcoming match will be played with underscored goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
