Storylines

USA: We can see numerous rotation in the squad in comparison with Sunday’s win against Mexico. Yunus Musah is expected to play a lot, according to USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter, but both Zack Steffen and Bryan Reynolds overlook out because of injury. This can be a perfect game to receive some minutes for those viewed as fringe players for the national team, while the players can also make their case to be included in July’s Gold Cup.

Costa Rica: Without Keylor Navas, this team is far from as formidable as it may be. But with some veterans that have some talent, they may be able to cause a young USA team some issues. Expect Costa Rica to keep watch over the ball somewhat a bit and to have some quality chances going forward, but they’ll need Joel Campbell to continue to play polite.

Prediction

Musah gets his goal and the Americans pick up another win. Pick: USA 2, Costa Rica 0
