Costa Rica Jamaica betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this meeting will be the victory of Costa Rica. Despite going through a less positive moment, we believe that the Costa Rican team will dominate much of the game because of the collective quality they hold on the roster. On the other hand, Jamaicans have serious flaws in their style of play, apart from the fact that they do not possess quality weapons. So, and to play at home, Costa Rica should enter to finish the first 90 'with a win.

Costa Rica come to this game with a 1-0 loss to Guatemala, adding the second snub in friendly games. We remember that the Costa Ricans recorded 7 losses in their last 10 games. In this game against Jamaica, coach Gustavo Matosas should play in the usual 4-2-3-1 opting for an offensive strategy in order to return to the triumphs. At the individual level, we highlight Joel Campbell, a Costa Rican player, who is very fast and competent in finishing. It seems that the selector can count on all the players at his disposal.

Confirmed Lineup: Keylor Navas, Kendall Waston, Ronald Matarrita, Keysher Fuller Spence, Francisco Calvo, Giancarlo González, Celso Borges, Allan Cruz, Mayron George, Bryan Ruiz, Joel Campbell.
Coach: G. Alfaro.
