Honduras vs Mexico lineups, team news
Forward Romell Quioto – who used to play for MLS side CF Montreal but is now a free agent – has been excluded from the Honduras squad for disciplinary reasons after reportedly choosing a party over reporting for international duty in a timely manner.
Striker Jorge Benguche, who plays for Paraguayan club Olimpia, has been unable to join the squad. His replacement is Douglas Martinez, of United Soccer League team Indy Eleven.
Honduras lineup (4-4-1-1, right to left): Menjivar (GK) – Najar, Maldonado, Vega, Rivas – Rodriguez, Flores, Alvarez, Palma – Lopez – Lozano
Mexico could give a debut to Julian Quinones after the Colombia-born 26-year-old became eligible to play for them. Quinones played for his birth country at youth level but the Club America winger has lived in Mexico City since 2016 and now become a citizen.
Barcelona rightback Julian Araujo returns after an absence through injury, though he may only start on the bench.
Mexico lineup (4-3-3, right to left): Ochoa (GK) — Sanchez, Alvarez, Vasquez, Gallardo — Erick Sanchez, Romo, Chavez — Antuna, Martin, Pineda
Honduras vs Mexico prediction, betting odds
Honduras have not scored against Mexico in their previous five attempts, and the home side are long shots to avoid a fifth successive defeat in the fixture.
They have, however, secured at least a draw in 11 of their previous 16 home games against Mexico before a 1-0 World Cup qualifying defeat in 2021, including five wins between 1983 and 2017. That record hints that the game may not be as one-sided as the odds suggest.
Prediction: Honduras 0-1 Mexico
HON win | Draw | MEX win | Both teams to score Y / N | Over / Under 2.5 goals | |
