Why Bet on Panama versus the United States
Panama is playing soccer as well, better in some cases, as the U.S. The Panamanians beat Costa Rica and Martinique by 2-1 scores.
Panama knew they didn’t have to take down El Salvador. So the 2-2 draw makes sense. The real reason to like Panama in this semifinal is because in their quarterfinals match, Panama dusted Qatar 4-0.
If Panama plays as well on Wednesday, they will have a shot for the upset victory.

Why Bet on the United States versus Panama
The United States had been cruising but in their quarterfinals match, the Canadians really pushed Team USA.
The United States got by Canada via penalty kicks. However, it wasn’t easy. The U.S. got up 1-0 and then gave up a goal in extra time. Then before penalty kicks, each team scored a goal.
The United States should have learned a lesson from the tough fought match against the Canadians. Team USA can’t rely exclusively on their talent. They must work together as a team and maintain focus no matter the opponent.
Expect a U.S. side that’s dialed into their Wednesday evening opponent.

CONCACAF Gold Cup Final Betting Analysis: Panama vs. USA
Panama is playing excellent soccer, but the U.S. is too powerful to lose. The United States is deep, which is why even without a few of their top players, they managed a penalty kick victory over the Canadians.
Canada, by the way, is the second or third best team after the U.S. in the CONCACAF. So the Canadians pushing the Americans to penalty kicks makes some sense.
Also, Panama dusted a Qatar side that wasn’t on their level. When it comes to semifinals in tournaments like this, the team that faced adversity to win usually gets the semi victory.
Sounds strange to say but in this matchup, the U.S. is the team that faced the most adversity and came out ahead. A more focused United States soccer team steps onto the pitch on Wednesday. Give the Americans the nod.
