Mexico vs Jamaica
It is a battle of two of the invited teams as Mexico and Jamaica square off in a Group B clash at the Copa America. Both teams have experienced contrasting fortunes in the build-up to the tournament but the Mexicans often come out on top in this fixture and should claim the upper hand once again.
Mexico regularly get invited to the Copa America, although they were not a part of the last two editions. Still waiting for their first title, they boast a decent record in the competition having finished as runners up twice.
The Mexicans will be targeting another deep run in the competition, although their preparations have not been particularly smooth. Jaime Lozano’s men have won just two of their last five matches and were beaten 3-2 by Brazil in their final warm-up game.
This will be Jamaica’s third appearance at the Copa America having been invited for the 2015 and 2016 editions. They crashed out in the group stage on both occasions, failing to win a single match.
Unlike Mexico, Jamaica have looked confident in their build-up to the competitions, although they faced less fancied opponents. Helmir Hallgrimsson’s men have won their last three matches and triumphed 3-2 over Dominica in their final warm-up fixture.
