This week, we will have the actions of a new FIFA date in all corners of the world, so each nation will be watching what their national team does in their respective matches.
As Mexico, Canada, and the United States do not have full qualifiers for the next World Cup, these three teams have to play as many preparation matches as possible. One of these tournaments that are played on FIFA dates is the CONCACAF Nations League, and right now, we have the quarterfinals to be played.
This stage features Jamaica, the United States, Costa Rica, Panama, Suriname, Canada, Honduras, and Mexico. These teams have had an excellent tournament, and of course, it was expected that the region’s powerhouses would be in these defining stages.
Now, one of the quarterfinal matches will be between Honduras and Mexico, which will be played this Friday, November 15.

Why bet on Honduras?
After finishing second in Group B with seven points from two wins, one draw, and one loss, the team coached by Reinaldo Rueda advanced to the final stages.
It is worth mentioning that they only failed to score in one of their four matches (a 0-0 draw against Jamaica), and that their best game came in the 4-0 victory over Trinidad and Tobago.
In the Group Stage, Honduras was unable to beat Jamaica, but they beat Nicaragua, Trinidad and Tobago, Cuba, and French Guyana.
It is also worth noting that Honduras has just beaten French Guyana 3-2 and drew 0-0 against Jamaica in their last two matches.
Why bet on Mexico?
The regional tournament remains an elusive prize for El Tri, also known as the “Concacaf Giants.” Despite its prestige, the Mexican national team has fallen short in the last three editions, failing to capture the coveted championship title.
With two heartbreaking second-place finishes, both at the hands of arch-rivals in the United States, and a third-place, the team is motivated to finally lift the trophy in this upcoming fourth attempt.
The initial hurdle for Javier Aguirre’s team comes in the form of a formidable Honduran side. Known for their impressive performance in the 2019-2020 season tournament, where they secured a creditable third-place finish by defeating Costa Rica, the Honduran team promises to be a challenging opponent for Mexico.
The Mexican national team is coming off a 3-0 win over New Zealand, a 0-0 draw with Canada, and a 2-0 victory over the United States in its last three matches.
Final Betting Analysis: Honduras vs. Mexico
Honduras and Mexico have met in the CONCACAF Nations League in the past.
It is interesting to note that their last meeting was during the best-eight phase of the previous edition. In the first match, Honduras won 2-0, and in the second leg, El Tri achieved the same result. After a 4-2 penalty shootout final, Mexico advanced to the semifinals.
At Gambyl Exchange, there is a Moneyline that favors Mexico at 1.635, while Honduras starts at 5.17.
For this match, our prediction is a 2-1 victory for the visitors.
