Trinidad & Tobago hasn’t tasted victories for quite a while. Last time the team won was on the 25th of March 2017. Since then the side managed to gain a single draw and seven defeats in eight matches played. Trinidad & Tobago’s run of defeats counts for six clashes with 4-14 goal difference. The side has failed this qualifying campaign as it took only three points with 4-15 goal difference in eight encounters resulted in the team’s occupying the last place in the Group from which it won’t get any higher. Trinidad & Tobago recorded four losses with two goals for and 10 goals against in four battles at away fields.
Mexico has not been beaten by Trinidad & Tobago since the 13th of October 2005 across seven consecutive head-to-heads having gained three victories and four draws in them. It goes without saying that the hosts are considered to be the favourites but I don’t believe that they will smash their opponent.
Prediction for the match: Trinidad & Tobago to win with +2.5 Asian handicap.
