Nicaragua vs Guyana prediction

Nicaragua begun the third match day of Group D sitting at the top, above Panama on goal difference, after back-to-back victories in their opening two matches. They now face a Guyana side that have instead started with a victory and a defeat in their two games, sitting three points behind both Nicaragua and Panama.

Nicaragua come into this one on the back of a 1-1 draw with Puerto Rico in their most recent outing the other day in an international friendly. That means they have now managed just one victory in their last six matches. Guyana, on the other hand, most recently suffered a 4-3 aggregate loss to Guatemala in qualification for the CONCACAF Gold Cup in March.

Guyana have shown signs of improvement in the last year or so but Nicaragua, especially with their home advantage, would have to be viewed as firm favourites for this one.
