The United States and Honduras face off on Wednesday in a CONCACAF World Cup qualifier at Allianz Field. It’s expected to be very cold during this game with a chance it falls below zero during the game. 

When these two teams faced off in October of 2021 it was Honduras that came away with the 1-0 victory. The United States didn’t have a shot on goal, and that led to the defeat. 

The United States currently sits in second place in the standings having picked up 18 points so far during qualifying. The United States has won plenty of games this year, but in the last game against Canada they struggled. The United States had 64 percent of the possession, but they couldn’t find the back of the net,.Two games ago against El Salvador, they only scored one goal and that came in the 52nd minute. This is a team that has gotten out to slow starts, and they are going to need to find a way to get going early in this game. 

On the other side of this matchup is Honduras who currently sit in last place in the standings having picked up only three points. This is a team that isn’t very talented and scoring goals has been the biggest issue. Over the last two games, Honduras has been outscored 4-0. Against El Salvador they actually had 65 percent of the possession, and five shots on target, but they couldn’t find the back of the net. When they faced off with the United States earlier this year the defense was strong, and they are going to need that to be the case again. If they give up a few goals again, they won’t have a chance to keep this game close. 

The United States offense has struggled as of late and it’s going to happen again in this game. There isn’t a ton of value with the United States on the money line so we will stay away from the side. Look for a max of one goal to go in the back of the net and the under is going to cash.
