Canada vs Guatemala Prediction

Canada are seeking only their third Gold Cup in history and first since the turn of the millenium. This is arguably their best shot at going all the way in a while and a win here would see them advance to the last four.

Guatemala, for their part, are aiming to win a maiden Gold Cup crown, although they triumphed once in its predecessor, the CONCACAF Championship. They were engaged in tight affairs in the group stage.

Barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner here. We are backing Canada to claim a routine victory and clean sheet.
