Honduras vs Costa Rica prediction
Honduras backed up their goalless draw against Haiti with a huge 2-0 win over Nicaragua, putting them top of the Group C after two rounds of games. Costa Rica meanwhile, have recorded two draws against Nicaragua and Haiti respectively, after both scoring and conceding four goals over the course of those two fixtures.
If any team can blunt the attacking threat of Costa Rica, it would be Honduras. The latter have given up no goals so far in Group C and are more than capable of restricting their opponents to limited opportunities. It’s hard to see Costa Rica keeping a clean sheet on the flip side, so consider backing Honduras via the safety of the draw no bet market.
