Mexico and Jamaica will face off at NRG Stadium to start their Copa America 2024 campaigns. El Tri struggled in their recent warm-up matches, losing to Uruguay (0-4) and Brazil (2-3).
However, it’s worth noting that coach Jaime Lozano used these games to try out different players. The key player for Mexico will be Feyenoord forward Santiago Gimenez, while experienced players Hector Herrera and Raul Jimenez have been excluded from the squad.
Jamaica, on the other hand, is aiming for their fourth straight victory in all competitions but will face a strong challenge against Mexico. With Premier League stars Michail Antonio, Leon Bailey, and Bobby Decordova-Reid in their lineup, the match is anticipated to be high-scoring. The last time these teams met in a competitive match, Mexico won 3-0.
Prediction: 2-1
