Panama vs Salvador Prediction: Panama does not need goals

Prediction for the CONCACAF Gold Cup Panama vs Salvador match which will take place on July 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

Panama

The Panama national team is one of the strongest in the CONCACAF. It was proved by the last tournament of the League of Nations, where they won the group with Costa Rica and Martinique without defeats and conceded goals, and got into the final playoffs, where they lost in serious resistance to Canada in the semifinals (0:2) and Mexico in the battle for third place (0:1).

The team was close to two shutouts at the start of the group stage of the 2023 Gold Cup. But both against Costa Rica and Martinique, leading 2:0, the Panamanians missed by 90+. However, two 2:1 wins are unlikely to upset the Panamanian national team, which will ironically be in first place in the group, even with a draw against Salvador.

Salvador

A regular participant in North America's continental championships, the El Salvador national team is going through a tough period. The team has not been able to win since June 8 – six defeats and four draws. El Salvador scored only 8 goals in 14 games and only ten points in qualification for the World Cup 2022. Panama was only 4 points behind the Costa Rica national team, eventually reaching the World Cup through the playoffs.

After two rounds of the CONCACAF Cup 2023, El Salvador has one point – a 0:0 draw with Costa Rica; and one goal scored – by 90+5 with a score of 0:2 with Martinique (1:2).

Expert Betting Tips

Panama has already guaranteed participation in the quarterfinals. It is enough for them to draw with Salvador to take first place in the group. Panama will score points here, and the game is unlikely to be effective – Salvador scores little, Panama almost does not need goals in the last round.
