Mexico take on the visitors Guatemala in a friendly international match. The match will be played on Thursday, June 8th.
Mexicans are preparing for the "Gold Cup" of North and Central America. Their main competitor in this tournament is the United States. In the previous encounters between Mexico and Guatemala, the final score was 0-0 in two out of five matches. Guatemala played defensively and achieved acceptable results for themselves. This raises concerns that it won't be an easy task for the Mexicans. Guatemala will surely try once again to test their defense and will not push forward aggressively. The Mexican defense is unlikely to face many difficulties and challenges. The question then arises: will Mexico score, or will Guatemala manage to keep another clean sheet and end the match with a 0-0 draw?

Guatemala will also participate in the "Gold Cup" at the end of this month. In their group with Canada and Cuba, they have a good chance of finishing in the top two and advancing to the playoffs. Guatemala rarely faces strong opponents. This year, they have played three matches against teams such as Belize, French Guiana, and Panama, without losing to any of them. However, they have been struggling to score against Mexico. In their last five head-to-head encounters, Guatemala has failed to find the back of the net. This time, it will be extremely challenging for the visitors to break through the Mexican defense, and Guatemala will likely prefer to focus on their defensive tactics, aiming for another 0-0 draw against Mexico.
I don't often bet on the option that a team won't score. But in this match against Guatemala, it might be worth considering such a bet. A tradition seems to have formed between these teams, where the Mexicans keep a clean sheet against this opponent. Therefore, I assume that the same pattern will continue. My bet for this match is that Guatemala will not score.
Prediction for the match: Guatemala to score – no.
