After more than four years of waiting, we’re on the final stretch of the road to the FIFA World Cup as the biggest event in sport returns to our screens this winter. Despite the controversy surrounding the host nation, there’s still a whole lot of excitement in the air as countries gear up for their last few warm-up games before it gets underway in November – with Mexico’s coming against Colombia.

Mexico

Mexico just cannot seem to get over that game five curse at the World Cup but this time around, with another impressive squad and a driven fanbase, they’ll be hoping they can push through to the quarter-finals and hope their momentum will take them forward from there. They have Poland, Argentina and Saudi Arabia to contend with in what should be a group full of surprises.

Colombia

Colombia, who served an important role for South America in the last few World Cups, didn’t manage to qualify this time around and will therefore be forced to sit and watch from home. It’s a disappointing turn of events for a nation that so often puts heavy expectations on their own shoulders, but for now, all they can do is begin to look ahead to the 2024 Copa America.

Factors to Consider

  • Colombia have lost just one of their last seven games against Mexico.
  • Mexico have won two, drawn two and lost two of their last six games.
  • Colombia have won four and lost two of their last six games.
  • Mexico have scored three goals and conceded five in their last six games.
  • Colombia have scored nine goals and conceded three in their last six games.

Conclusion

We have one country with not a whole lot to play for and another who want to make a statement before a global event later this year, leading us to believe that Mexico will be the ones who really have their tails up. They want to make sure they’ve got the right attacking system in place for the big dance, and they’ll do that by running through Colombia with a comprehensive 3-0 win.
