Mexico vs Panama

Mexico and Panama will square off against each other at the Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee in an exciting all-CONCACAF friendly.

Mexico head into proceedings in the midst of a minor deep in form, having gone from back-to-back wins to three consecutive draws if considered just 90 minutes of play. Additionally, the Mexicans have struggled in front of goal lately, scoring under 1.5 goals four times across their previous six internationals while drawing a blank twice in the last two. A match against Panama should help them rediscover their mojo, considering ‘El Tri’ have scored precisely three goals apiece across their previous two H2Hs (W2). If they find the net here, Gerardo Martino’s men are likely to do it late on, as nine of their last ten international strikes have come beyond the 60th minute. At the other end of the pitch, three clean sheets in five internationals should encourage Mexico’s hopes of returning to winning ways.

In the meantime, Panama’s goalless away draw with Curacao in a World Cup qualifier last time out ended a run of five successive victories, albeit marking a fifth clean sheet in seven internationals. Before being held scoreless to Curacao, Panama had scored 2+ goals in four matches in a row, averaging 5.00 goals per game! With that said, ‘Los Canaleros’ have failed to trouble the scoresheet in five of their last six meetings with Mexico (D1, L5), with their lone strike in that period courtesy of the Mexicans’ own goal. Still, Panama have been fun to watch away from home lately, with three of their last four road fixtures featuring over 2.5 total goals at an average of 6.00 per match.
