Canada will host Jamaica at the BMO Field on Sunday night in the forthcoming CONCACAF 2022 World Cup Qualifiers. Kickoff set for 27th March 20222 23:05 EAT.
Canada needs just a single point against Jamaica on Sunday to clinch their spot in World Cup 2022 this November. However, the Canucks remain atop the standings with 25 points from 12 games. They recorded wins in four of their last five fixtures, and only lost in one. In 5 of their last 6 meetings, opposing sides scored an aggregate of 2 and Canada got themselves 9.
Canada will be hoping for a better result following a 1-0 WC Qualifiers – N & C America defeat last time out to Costa Rica. In that match, Canada 68% possession, 18 shots with 3 of them on target. Costa Rica got 11 shots with 4 of them on target and a goal scored by Celso Borges (45+1”).
The Reggae Boyz is seventh in the group with just eight points from 12 games. In the last five fixtures, three losses and two draws has been recorded. They will look to return to winning ways and end their disappointing World Cup qualifying campaign on a high. They have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 11 goals overall.
Jamaica is hoping for an improvement following a 1-1 draw in the WC Qualifiers – N & C America match with El Salvador. In the game, Jamaica got 52% possession, 17 shots with 5 of them on target and a goal scored by Andre Gray (72’). El Salvador had 7 shots with 3 of them on target and a goal scored by Eriq Zavaleta(21’).
