Canada vs Mexico Preview and Team News
Canada Team News
Canada and Mexico meet each other in the semifinal of the ongoing CONCACAF Nations League on Thursday.
Canada, who like to sit back and defend on most occasions before getting hold of the ball and propelling forward, will have to take up a more active role in this game if they aim to win and qualify for the final.

They usually like to lineup in a 4-4-2 formation which allows them to invert one of their fullbacks and allow their wingers a more protracted role at the top of the tree.
This also allows their midfielders to have a more pronounced position in the final third by not just bringing their attackers into play but also getting into good positions to take shots themselves from attractive areas.
However, injuries to Jacob Shaffelburg, Maxime Crepeau and Richie Laryea will hamper Canada’s plans for dominance in this game from the first minute onwards.
- Canada predicted lineup vs Mexico (4-4-2): St Clair; Davies, Bombito, Miller, Johnston; Ahmed, Eustaquio, Choiniere, Osorio; David, Larin.
Mexico Team News
For Mexico, Luis Chávez appears to be ruled out of this game with a leg injury whereas Efraín Álvarez has an illness and can be a doubtful starter.
Still, their attractive brand of football will be keenly watched in this game although a lot of their attackers will be tightly marked.
Mexico will have to find ways to get into their final third and shrug off the Canadian defenders; if they are able to do so, a lot of their problems will be solved, and they will be able to emerge on top at the end of the evening.

A hybrid friendly that they played, against River Plate, ended in a 0-2 defeat for Mexico, but they will be aiming for a more consolidated performance against Canada.
They have kept three clean sheets in their last five matches, and this will give them the confidence to organise themselves in a clinical nature at the back in this game as well.
- Mexico predicted lineup vs Canada (4-2-3-1): Malagon; Gallardo, Orozco, Montes, Huescas; Alvarez, Rodriguez; Vega, Romo, Gutierrez; Jimenez.
Canada vs Mexico Prediction
- Pick: Canada to win or draw
- Odds: -278 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Canada 1-1 Mexico
We expect Canada to have an upper hand in this game, which will translate into them either winning or drawing.
They have a fine-looking side that thrives on possession, and a lot of this tactic will be seen in this match.

They will want to make the most of possession by inverting their fullbacks and diverting all of their build-up play through the wings.
This also allows them to bring a more nuanced way of attacking through the lines. Canada have won or drawn on three out of eight occasions against Mexico in the past.
Canada vs Mexico Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total over 1.5 goals
- Odds: -263 (20Bet)
We expect to see a total of over 1.5 goals in this game since both teams like to be recalcitrant inside their own half and do not give away too much of the hands they are dealing with.
Canada have not been beaten in their last five matches, in which four have come in victories.
They have also kept a clean sheet in three out of those five outings, although they saw a total of over 1.5 goals in three matches as well. Mexico, meanwhile, have seen a total of over 1.5 goals in all of their last five encounters.
