Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is the scoring of several goals. In this preparation game, Costa Rica should dominate and enjoy the best chances to score, since they have a superior squad, thus taking advantage of the defensive weaknesses of the opponent. On the other hand, Qatar enters this match with the objective of achieving a good result and will take advantage of its strong counterattack to create danger.

Preview
Costa Rica and Qatar meet at PROfertil ARENA, for a friendly match. This will be the 4th friendly match of the year for Costa Rica, after the ones against Panama and United States. As for Qatar, this is the 2nd friendly match of the year, after the previous friendly match against Ghana. These two teams have never met before, so this will be the first head‑to‑head between them. Costa Rica registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Costa Rica

The home team plays its 4th friendly match of the year. In the previous friendly matches they registered the following final scores: Costa Rica (0‑1) Panama, Costa Rica (0‑1) Panama and United States (1‑0) Costa Rica. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 2 draws and 11 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 31 conceded; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 12 conceded. In the last 6 home matches Costa Rica has won 3 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 14 matches, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Costa Rica comes unmotivated for this match after a defeat, by 0-1, against Panama, making it the fourth consecutive loss in several competitions. Note that the Costa Ricans have won only 3 of the last 10 matches played. Usually mister Rónald González plays in 3-5-2 favoring the maintenance of ball possession and attacks by the flanks: Joel Campbell is very fast and strong on the counterattack. After being left out of the squad in the last match, Keylor Navas returns to the team and should assume the captain's armband. All players are available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Keylor Navas, Francisco Calvo, Óscar Duarte, Kendall Waston, Cristian Gamboa, David Guzmán, Celso Borges, Johan Venegas, Felicio Brown Forbes, Joel Campbell, Ariel Lassiter.
Coach: G. Alfaro.

Analysis Qatar

The away team plays its 2nd friendly match of the year, after having faced Ghana, in a friendly that ended with the final score: Ghana (5‑1) Qatar. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 34 goals scored and 14 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Qatar has won 5, tied 1 and lost 4. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 13 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 9 of their 25 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The Qatar national team comes motivated for this match after a 5-1 defeat against Ghana, making it the second defeat followed in several competitions: Almoez Ali scored the team's only goal. Qatar usually play in a 3-4-3 tactical system, favoring a more cautious style of play, attacking through the side aisles. At the individual level we highlight the right winger Akram Afif, this player being very fast and very strong on the counterattack. Coach Félix Sánchez can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Meshaal Barsham, Pedro Miguel Correia, Boualem Khoukhi, Abdelkarim Hassan, Karim Boudiaf, Tarek Salman, Mohammed Al Bayati, Abdulaziz Hatem, Akram Afif, Hassan Al Heidos, Almoez Ali.
Coach: C. Brito Leal Queiróz.
