Costa Rica vs Canada

Costa Rica host Canada at Estadio Nacional de Costa Rica in San Jose for this World Cup qualification third stage round 12 battle Friday morning Beijing time. An intense battle is on the cards here for sure! Typically for a quite balanced international match between it would be a surprise to see many goals here.. The betting market seems to agree on this. Both teams are capable of playing good-quality football, and have a few very skilled individuals. It think watching this match would not be waste of time - at least it is very interesting betting-wise..

Canada, quite surprisingly, lead the group with 25 points. Both USA and Mexico have grabbed 21 points from matches. It was probably no surprise to any pro football bettor that Canada would improve from the last World Cup qualification. They are definitely a promising, young team. They have indeed exceeded mh expectations and I have increased their power rating that reflects a team’s raw class. However, they have most certainly become too “hot” on the betting market and are, as a result, over-valued. They have not played as well as the standings reflect! They beat USA in their most recent match at home 2-0 but USA had 64% ball possession and created 13 scoring chances. Canada recorded just 8. USA also had 74 dangerous attacks, Canada only had about 20.. The final score is indeed very misleading!

Canada have won just 2 of their latest 5 away matches away from home, and these wins came over a bad team Honduras and a pretty lowly team El Salvador. Nothing to get too excited about.. This will not be an easy match for them by any means. I would say they are only slim favorites meaning that our bet Costa Rica +1 goal handicap with the 1x2 handicap option has over 60% chance of winning! Costa Rica still have a chance to qualify for World Cup promotion, and will fight very hard here in front of the home fans! They have played pretty well so far, and have lost just one of their latest 5 matches – 0-1 against Canada last November. They have potential for even better performaces!

Canada are, as mentioned above, a rising football nation but have not achieved any real success at international level and will they ever? I am not quite sure about that.. Their FIFA ranking is currently record-high 33th with 1497.82 points. Costa Rica are ranked just a little lower and have 1464.06 points and in my opinion they are better at than the 42th place would reflect. They played well to beat Jamaica 1-0 away from home in their latest match and before that defended extremely well to force Mexico, a very strong team especially at home, to a goalless draw!

北京时间周五上午，哥斯达黎加在圣何塞哥斯达黎加国家体育场迎战加拿大队，进行世界杯预选赛第12轮第三轮比赛。一场激烈的战斗肯定会在这里发生!对于一场相当平衡的国际比赛来说，在这里看到这么多进球会让人吃惊。博彩市场似乎同意这一点。两支球队都有能力踢出高质量的足球，也都有一些技术娴熟的球员。它认为看这场比赛不会浪费时间，至少它是非常有趣的赌博明智。

令人惊讶的是，加拿大以25分领先。美国队和墨西哥队都在比赛中获得了21分。对于任何职业足球赌徒来说，加拿大将比上届世界杯资格赛有所进步，这可能并不令人意外。他们绝对是一支有前途的年轻球队。他们确实超出了mh的预期，我提高了他们的能力评级，这反映了一支球队的原始级别。然而，它们在博彩市场上肯定变得过于“热”，因此被高估了。他们的表现没有积分榜所反映的那么好!在最近的一场主场比赛中，他们以2-0击败了美国队，但美国队有64%的控球权，并创造了13次得分机会。加拿大只有8个。美国也有74起危险袭击事件，加拿大只有20起。最终的分数确实很误导人!

加拿大在最近的5场客场比赛中只赢了2场，这些胜利都是战胜了实力不强的洪都拉斯队和实力相当弱的萨尔瓦多队。没有什么值得太兴奋的。无论如何，这对他们来说都不是一场轻松的比赛。我想说他们只是小热门，这意味着我们打赌哥斯达黎加+1球差点和1x2差点选项有超过60%的胜算!哥斯达黎加仍然有机会晋级世界杯，他们将在主场球迷面前奋力拼搏!到目前为止，他们踢得很好，最近5场比赛中只输了一场——去年11月0:1输给加拿大。他们有潜力获得更好的表现!

正如上面所提到的，加拿大是一个正在崛起的足球国家，但还没有在国际水平上取得任何真正的成功，他们会吗?对此我不太确定。他们在国际足联排名中以1497.82分位居第33位，创下了历史新高。哥斯达黎加的排名稍微低一些，有1464.06分，在我看来，他们比第42位的排名要好。在最近的一场比赛中，他们踢得很好，在客场1-0击败了牙买加队，而在那之前，他们的防守也非常出色，迫使主场实力非常强大的墨西哥队0 -0战平!
