El Salvador vs Guatemala Team Preview
El Salvador
El Salvador has been in excellent form in World Cup qualification and friendly games in 2021, losing only once in eight appearances. On Sunday, they were defeated 1-0 by Qatar in a friendly match.
They are competing in the event after qualifying for the World Cup in the Final Round. Then they played three more friendly, drawing once and losing twice.
Guatemala
After defeating Guyana, Guatemala tied 1-1 with Guadeloupe in the second round of the Prelims before losing 10-9 on penalties. It must be difficult to go from seemingly no hope to a spot in the region’s premier competition, but interim manager Rafael Loredo will strive to keep his team motivated.
With so little time to prepare, they’ll be glad their first match is against El Salvador, especially because Los Chapines faced them in a friendly in late June and drew 0-0, so they’ll be fresh in their minds.
