We said: Mexico 1-0 Costa Rica (after extra time)
Do not expect the Costa Ricans to have the same amount of time and space on the ball versus the Mexicans like they had on matchday three, as El Tri have dominated the possession battle so far in this competition and have not allowed many clear-cut opportunities. These sides have plenty of experience to count upon and are both solid defensively, but Mexico have shown a little more consistency and should also have more energy, which is why we are giving them a slight edge this weekend.
