Mexico vs Panama Prediction 17 July 2023

On the night from Sunday to Monday, the final of the CONCACAF Gold Cup will take place - this time the prestigious trophy will be played between Mexico and Panama.

Mexico holds this continental tournament at a very decent level. At the group stage, El Tri confidently dealt with Honduras (4:0) and Haiti (3:1), after which they remained in first place even after losing 0:1 to Qatar. And in the playoffs, the teams of Costa Rica (2:0) and Jamaica (3:0) became their victims.

Panama was not at the 2022 World Cup, so getting to the Gold Cup final is a major achievement for the channelers. On the way to the final, they broke the resistance of Costa Rica (2:1), Martinique (2:1), Qatar (4:0) and the USA (2:1), and also had a 2:2 draw with El Salvador in a little meaningful game of the quartet C matchday 3.

In our opinion, these teams are in different weight categories, and Mexico, moreover, is very motivated and charged to fight. We predict the success of the nominal hosts in regular time.
