Today’s Betting Prediction USA vs Trinidad & Tobago
In the 4: 0 against Guyana the USA was not demanded and thus early on a few regular players could be replaced to save energy. The Caribbean kicker of Trinidad and Tobago had to defeat Panama 2-0 after a poor performance and are thus in a duel against the top favorites already with his back to the wall. In case of another defeat, the retirement of number 93 of the FIFA World Ranking List would be fixed. However, if the US and Trinidad and Tobago predict an outsider’s victory is actually right, more than ten times the lure will attract.
USA – Statistics & Current Form
The Gold Cup was for many years only a duel between the arch-rivals USA and Mexico. No fewer than 16 of the previous 24 titles could win these two teams. An outsider victory came for the last time in 2000, when Canada prevailed. In the recent past, the USA was the most successful team and not only lifted the trophy in 2017, but also in 2013, 2007, 2005 and 2002. A big advantage was certainly that the eleven from the United States always acted as host. The innovations should make the competition a little more balanced. This year, however, the final will again be in the US – in Chicago – over the stage.
A retirement before the final would definitely be a big disappointment for Gregg Berhalter’s team. The USA, currently number 24 in the FIFA World Ranking List, has done well in Russia after missing out on qualifying for the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals. The Berhalter-Elf has to be measured by the title win. There is no shortage of quality, as Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie have two top players from the German Bundesliga. However, there are also some failures to complain about. Tyler Adams (RB Leipzig) injured shortly before the tournament, John Brooks, DeAndre Yedlin, Timothy Weah or Josh Sargent found in the squad by Berhalter no consideration. All in all, the US relies on a team that is largely under contract in the domestic MLS.
At first glance, therefore, the quality seems to be lacking, as many players in this country are not known. Nevertheless, especially the group phase should not be a problem. For the start against Guyana, the US was no nakedness and dominated the game at will. Goalkeeper Zach Steffen experienced a very quiet working day and only had to fend off a shot on goal. After two defeats in preparation (against Jamaica and Venezuela), this win was balm on the wounds. Early on was switched to the mode “power saving” and long ball relay in their own ranks were the logical consequence. The German legionaries McKennie and Pulisic were replaced early to save the forces for the upcoming tasks.
Expected lineup of USA:
↳ Steffen – Ream, Zimmerman, Long, Lima – Bradley, McKennie – Arriola, Pulisic, Boyd – Zardes

Trinidad and Tobago – Statistics & Current Form
In 2006, the Elf from the Caribbean on the big football stage made a name and was the only time to see a football World Cup. In Germany, the underdog was allowed to compete with the best teams in the world and reached after all a draw against Sweden. In recent years, the current FIFA World Cup number 93 has been a long way from achieving such success. The second World Cup participation can probably wait another few years. In the squad of head coach Dennis Lawrence not a single player can be found, who could make a name for himself in international football. Although 17 of the 23 cadre players earn their money abroad (eleven of them in the US), the players do not play an important role in their teams. Partly, the players are even only in the second or third American league under contract. Left Wing Levi Garcia is the only European legionnaire. He is under contract to the Israeli no-name team Ironi Kiryat Shamona.
After the Caribbean footballers were able to reach the quarter-finals of the Gold Cup in 2013 and 2015, the team was not represented at the finals two years ago. This year, the tournament is likely to be over after three group matches. The results in recent months have been disappointing. Only one of the last eight international matches could be won – a friendly match against the United Arab Emirates in September 2018. In the seven remaining games, there was not only no victory, but Trinidad and Tobago had no own goal. On the basis of these statistics, the prediction between the USA and Trinidad and Tobago that both teams can not score a goal is absolutely obvious.
Expected formation of Trinidad and Tobago:
↳ Phillip – Williams, David, Cyrus, Jones – George, Hyland – Williams, Molino, Lewis – Garcia
Last matches from Trinidad and Tobago:
⚽️ 19.06.2019 – Panama Vs. Trinidad and Tobago 2: 0 (CONCACAF Gold Cup)
