Panama hosts Canada in round 14 of the third stage of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, March 31st at Estadio Rommel Fernandez (Panama City)
Panama was able to debut at the World Cup in 2018. However, the Canal Men did not show anything special, losing all three matches with a total score of 2-11. But of course, they wanted to repeat this achievement. And there were certain chances of reaching this goal, albeit through the playoffs. For most of the qualifiers, Panama managed to be on par with Costa Rica. But at the decisive moment, Thomas Christensen’s men significantly slowed down. In winter, they lost to Costa Rica and Mexico and gained a home victory over Jamaica. And most importantly, the Canal Men shared points with Honduras at home and were hammered by the USA away (5-1) in March. After a romp from the Stars and Stripes, it is already clear that Panama will finish in fifth place. The Canal Men have 18 points and lag four points behind the playoff zone.

The national team of Canada became the main sensation of this qualification. After all, this country was considered strong in winter sports, primarily in hockey. If we look at football successes, the Maple Leaves managed to qualify for the World Cup only once in their history. And it happened in 1986, when the captain of the current team, Hutchinson, was born. Then the Canadians suffered three whitewashes. But now they have such top-class players as Alphonso Davis and Jonathan David. As a result, the Maple Leaves managed to win eight out of 13 matches in the current qualifiers. In the last round, they defeated Jamaica without any problems (4-0). As a result, Canada became the first and the only team from North and Central America that had already qualified for the World Cup. Now the Reds have 26 points. Yes, the USA and Mexico can catch up with the Canadians after the last round, but they can already buy tickets for their trip to Qatar.
Canada has always played well against Panama. The Canal Men won only one out of 11 head-to-head matches. Yes, the Maple Leaves gained only four victories, but they won 4-1 in the current qualifiers. Bookmakers believe that Canada should not stop even after securing promotion to the World Cup. We agree with them and recommend betting on the visitors to win.
Prediction for the match: Canada to win
