El Tri’s search for a record ninth Gold Cup title is off to a hot start after notching two wins in their first two matches. Ever since Jaime Lozano took over, his presence has arguably been the jolt they needed as Mexico have been playing inspired soccer. They beat Honduras 4-0 in the opener and fended off Haiti 3-1 on Thursday. While they have firmly secured a spot in the next round, a win on Sunday could be a statement in reaffirming their return to prominence.
Qatar started well in the first two Gold Cup matches but have not been able to land the decisive blow to garner three points. If anything, they slip up at the most inopportune moment as they seek their first win of the tournament. After falling to Haiti 2-1 in the opener, Qatar managed to draw with Honduras 1-1 on Thursday. In addition to upsetting Mexico on Sunday, they also need some luck to go their way to qualify for the knockout round.
