Canada faces Martinique in round 1 of the Gold Cup. The match will be played on Monday, July 12th at Children's Mercy Park (Kansas City)
Canada suffered a serious staff loss before the start of the Gold Cup. Lille's forward Jonathan David did not go to the tournament. But even without this talented football player, John Herdman has enough performers to storm the heights of the continental championship. The Reds looked strong in the qualification for the World Cup 2022, breaking into the decisive stage of the qualifying cycle. The roster of modern Canada includes enough experienced and talented football players who are capable of bringing their team to high tournament results (A. Davis, Larin, Hoilett, and several players from MLS clubs). Gone are the days when Canadians regarded the USA and Mexico with admiration. Now they are the favorites themselves!

Martinique is a modest national team with similar staffing capabilities. The very fact of participation in the continental tournament is a great success for them. In the last draw of the Gold Cup, Mario Bocaly's charges finished their performances at the group stage. Since 2019, this team has not played a single official match, and it is at the Gold Cup 2021 that we will see the islanders on the pitch for the first time. Martinique cannot boast of a stellar roster, but there are still several players from modest European clubs. These are forwards Riviere, Burner Fortune, as well as defenders Camille and Babin. Beyond that, the fans will surely see new football talents among the rest of the players on the team.
In this pair of contenders, there is a clear favorite in the face of the Canadians, who are ready for great results and unlocking their potential. Davis and the company should win with a significant lead. We expect at least two goals from the North Americans. Plus, with a high degree of probability, Martinique will not be able to upset the Canadian goalkeeper.
Prediction for the match: Canada to win with -1.5 handicap
