Jamaica vs USA Prediction & Picks - CONCACAF Nations League
by Carlos Zabala | in Soccer Picks
The first of two CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal matches between the United States and Jamaica begins. The first match will be played on Thursday in Kingston while the return match will be played in St. Louis on Monday.
This match will be the competitive debut for Pochettino, the new coach of the US national soccer team with poor results recently and 18th in the FIFA rankings. The Argentine coach will give himself the opportunity to try out new players and was strict in ensuring that each player must take each call-up to the national team as if it were his last. Pochettino already had two friendly matches prior to this clash, in one they won 2-0 against Panama and in the other they lost by the same score against Mexico.
The United States will be the favorite with odds of -103 to beat Jamaica in the 90 minutes. However, the Reagans were unbeaten in 4 games in the A League, keeping a clean sheet against Honduras, Nicaragua and Cuba, and keeping a clean sheet in 3 of 4 games in the previous phase.
In March, the United States beat Jamaica in overtime in this same competition, when they were eliminated except for Jamaica's own goal in the 96th minute.

Jamaica - USA: Form Analysis
The USMNT under new leadership in Pochettino has had a difficult time finding rhythm. They've won just 1 game in their last 5 matches (2-0 to Panama) and 4 losses, including a 2-0 defeat in the face of rivals Mexico. Consistency has been an issue with this team for several years at this point, particularly on defense. The USMNT has conceded an average of 1.33 goals per game over their last 6. Perhaps the one silver lining going into this matchup is the fact that the USMNT has performed well against Jamaica recently with 3 wins over the Jamaicans in their last 5 meetings.

B. De Cordova-Reid
F. Balogun
Jamaica & USA Squad Analysis
Adding to their woes, the USMNT will be without star striker Folarin Balogun for this match, who is out on injury. The US desperately needs Balogun for this match as they're coming off a match where they weren't able to capitalize on any chances against Mexico. Further complicating the situation for the Americans is the fact that injury-prone Tyler Adams wasn't selected for this match due to questions about long-term fitness. His absence will be felt in midfield where everyone is still vying for their spot under the new head coach.
Jamaica's attack will also be hindered in this matchup as they will be without Bobby De Cordova-Reid due to injury. Jamaica will be counting on other strikers to step up in his absence and perhaps rely more heavily on a solid defense to do the job.
Jamaica - USA Key Points
