MAT vs USA Dream11 Prediction: The USA will try to extend their unbeaten run in the Gold Cup group stage to 15 games when they host Martinique from Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City on Thursday. Les Matinino gave up four unanswered goals to Canada, losing their opener 4-1, while the Americans scored early versus Haiti and ended up with a relatively comfortable 1-0 win.
MAT vs USA Dream11 Prediction
A hard fought 1-0 victory for United States over Haiti saw them begin their CONCACAF Gold Cup journey positively, although they have plenty to work on following the win. Despite boasting over 60% possession, they could not turn that domination into goals and will look to rectify that against a vastly inferior Martinique side beating 4-1 by Canada in their opening match. Winning this match is the minimum expectation for United States, as head coach Gregg Berhalter will expect his team to show more potency going forward, especially when considering that goal difference could prove the decisive factor in terms of who ultimately finishes top of Group B.

Who will win?
Playing in their first match since 2019, Martinique showed their rust, seemingly a step behind the Canadians throughout the majority of that match, and they could have a hard time containing a young and speedy American team. The United States did not have a spectacular opening match, but they always seem to get better as these competitions go on, so we should see a much sharper team in this one. In our MAT vs USA Today Match Prediction odds, we back for a 2-0 win for USA in this match.
