The USMNT know that anything other than victory would be a shock when Trinidad and Tobago visit Texas for the CONCACAF Nations League.
Entering on a run of three wins in four games, most home fans will expect a similar scoreline to the USA's 4-0 win over Ghana in their most recent match on October 18.
Trinidad are 88 places below the 11th-placed USA in the world rankings but have a considerable added incentive in the two-legged quarterfinal.
That is because a win for either side would guarantee them a place at the 2024 Copa America, as well as moving a step closer to the Nations League trophy which the USA are seeking to secure for a third successive edition.
