Panama vs Bosnia-Herzegovina prediction

Coached by former Leeds United boss Thomas Christiansen, the Panamanians qualified for their second ever FIFA World Cup with ease. The Central Americans recovered from a 6-2 loss to Brazil by hammering the Dominican Republic by four goals to two the other day.

They now face a Bosnia-Herzegovina side that will be in Group B at this summer’s tournament after beating both Wales and then Italy on penalties in the UEFA playoffs. The Bosnians shared a goalless draw with North Macedonia the other day.

It is a bit of a clash of styles and approach but, with an extra familiarity with the conditions in North America, siding with Panama would appear the way to go for this one.
