Jamaica hosts Honduras in round 14 of the third stage of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, March 31st at Independence Park (Kingston)
The national team of Jamaica played for the first and only time at the World Cup in 1998. In France, the Reggae Boys lost all three games in the group stage, including a 5-0 romp from Argentina. Still, it was their peak. As for the current qualifiers, the coaching staff involved the players from the English Premier League, who have some roots sufficient for naturalization. In autumn, the fans saw Michail Antonio, who regularly scores for West Ham. And don’t forget about Leon Bailey, who is the main star of the Jamaican national team. But all these players didn’t help the team achieve high results in these qualifiers. The Reggae Boys gained only one victory (over Honduras away) and scored eight points in 13 matches. Now they are in the penultimate place, having a small chance of moving up one step higher. But El Salvador has two points more, so Jamaica may move up to sixth place only in case of victory. However, it will only give moral pleasure.

Honduras has become the main and unconditional outsider of the current qualification cycle in Central and North America. In general, it is a quite modest team, but it managed to qualify for the World Cup in 2010 and 2014. The tournament in Russia was held without Los Catrachos. And now Honduras has become a complete disappointment. The team has not managed to gain a single victory. And having started relatively well (three draws in the first four matches, including against Canada and Costa Rica), then the White-Blues lost seven times in a row. In the last two games, Honduras managed to tie against Panama (1-1 due to a goal in the 65th minute), but then Los Catrachos lost to one of the giants, Mexico. Now they have only four points and take last place without any chance of leaving it.
Jamaica didn’t lose to Honduras in the last four head-to-head matches. Moreover, the previous three games ended in victories. Last October, the Reggae Boys won 2-0 on the pitch of Honduras. Now bookmakers believe that the hosts will be stronger in this fight between outsiders. Jamaica has a more powerful squad, and the field factor will give an additional advantage. We recommend betting on the hosts to win.
Prediction for the match: Jamaica to win
