W Gold Cup Group A: standings so far

  1. USWNT - 6pts (Q)
  2. Mexico - 4pts
  3. Argentina - 1 pt
  4. Dom. Rep. - 0 pts

What do Mexico need to qualify for quarter-finals?

Mexico, meanwhile, will be certain to finish in one of the group’s two automatic-qualification spots if they avoid defeat against the USWNT. Pedro López’s team will win the section if they beat the Stars and Stripes.

Given their huge goal-difference lead over Argentina, Mexico will clinch second in Group A even if they lose, as long as the Albiceleste don’t beat the Dominicans by a score big enough to wipe out La Tri’s advantage. And were Mexico to slip out of the top two on matchday three, their tally of four points would likely be enough to send them through anyway, as the quarter-final line-up will be completed by the two best third-placed finishers.

USWNT vs Mexico: prediction

The USWNT have an utterly dominant head-to-head record against Mexico, having won 40 of the countries’ 42 all-time meetings. That includes a run of 16 victories from the teams’ last 16 clashes - and we expect the Americans to stretch that streak to 17. Prediction: USWNT 3-1 Mexico.
