Mexico national A football team takes on the visitors Panama national A football team at “Estadio Azteca” stadium in round seven of the Fifth stage of the North, Central America and Caribbean’s Preliminary Competition to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. The clash will be played in Mexico on Saturday, September 2nd.
At the moment Mexico is one of the world’s strongest teams, losing rarely and showing spectacular and attacking football. This summer was not very successful for the Mexican team as it failed to win bronze medals having lost a fight for the third place in the FIFA Confederations Cup with 1:2 scoreline in extra time to Portugal and then unexpectedly was beaten 0:1 by Jamaica in the semi-final of the Gold Cup 2017, having lost the trophy. In regards to the World Cup qualification, Mexico is doing quite well there as the team picked up 14 points with 9-2 goal difference in six clashes and settles on the first place in the Group standings. In front of their supporters the Mexicans have defeated Costa Rica 2:0 and Honduras 3:0 and earned 1:1 draw against USA.

Panama has reached quarter-finals in the Gold Cup 2017 but was broken 0:1 by Costa Rica. After six matchdays played, Panama has great chances to get at least the fourth place eventually as the team is currently sitting namely on the fourth position with seven points gained and 4-4 goal difference. Panama build its play exclusively on defense, having scored and conceded one time each in three games on the road: 1:0 vs. Honduras, 0:1 vs. Trinidad & Tobago, 0:0 vs. Costa Rica.
Mexico has not been beaten by Panama since the 25th of July 2013 across six recent head-to-heads with four victories and two draws gained during that time with only clash finished with over scored goals while there were combined maximum two goals in the rest battles. Taking into account Panama’s performance in the current qualifying campaign, I believe that we will eye-witness another low scoring clash between Mexico and Panama.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
