Match Preview
The USA enjoyed an excellent run at the previous edition of the CONCACAF Nations League, as they were crowned champions following an emphatic win over Canada. They booked their spot at this stage of the competition following their run to the final earlier this year, and they will be confident of landing a second straight victory in the tournament.
America comes into this match in good form, as they have won three of their previous four internationals. Their only defeat across that period was suffered last month against Germany. However, they got back on track with an excellent 4-0 success against Ghana. Giovanni Reyna was a standout star in that win after netting twice.

Trinidad will take confidence from their performances in the group stage ahead of this quarterfinal first leg. The nation finished second in the Group A standings after winning three of their four matches. That record saw them finish a point behind Panama in the standings, but they were the highest scorers in the opening stage.
However, they will need to upset the odds this week, as they were easily beaten 6-0 in the latest clash between these sides in July 2023. But, Trinidad have won three of their four matches since that loss. However, a response will be needed this week, as they were beaten 5-3 by Curacao in the latest international break.
USA vs Trinidad and Tobago Prediction
The USA’s excellent record in this fixture looks challenging to overlook this week. Therefore, we expect the hosts to land a first leg victory by at least a three-goal winning margin.
