Mexico vs Panama Prediction: Who will win the trophy?

Mexico and Panama will play in the Gold Cup final. Who will win the trophy? What is the best bet?

Mexico

The Mexican national team holds the record for the most Gold Cups. In 17 games of this tournament, the Mexicans have been stronger eight times. Now the team is going for another trophy. It all started with two confident victories in the group stage, where the team beat Honduras (4:0) and Haiti (3:1). Then, having already guaranteed themselves a place in the play-offs, Mexico miraculously lost to Qatar (0:1). However, they had no problems at the quarter-final and semi-final stages. First was a 2:0 win over Costa Rica, then a 3:0 win over Jamaica.

Panama

Panama has no Gold Cup trophies. They have reached the final twice in their history, but both times they lost to the USA. As for this tournament, they are undefeated. The group started with 2:1 victories over Costa Rica and Martinique and drew with El Salvador (2:2). The team also had an extremely easy time in the quarter-final with a 4:0 win over Qatar. But in the semi-finals, Panama had to try hard and managed to get past the USA national team only in a penalty shootout (1:1, 5:4 penalties).

Expert Betting Tips

In the upcoming battle, we favor the Mexican national team. There are the statistics of face-to-face matches, where Mexicans dominate, and the statistics of participation in the Gold Cup, where Mexico has as many as eight trophies, while Panama has none. With all due respect to the Panamanians, they have very little chance of success in the upcoming final. Their squad is not even close to the Mexicans in terms of names. We think that the experience of successful play at the tournament and star players will play a key role in the final, so we suggest not making up anything and betting on Mexico's victory. But you can also combine it with a total under - we are unlikely to see many goals scored at such an important moment.
