Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Mexico in Gold Cup competition, Dominican Republic and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

💭 Prediction

For this match, we think that Dominican Republic are capable enough to find the back of the net against this Costa Rica lineup, but it isn’t expected to prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We’re expecting a narrow 2-1 winning score for Costa Rica at the end of the 90 minutes. We’ll have to see what happens.
