Each team in the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup has played a match, so it’s the second match day for Group A tonight in Denver. In the first matchup, Cuba will try to get its first points of the tournament after getting smoked 7-0 by Mexico. They will try to get those points against Martinique, who got dispatched 4-0 by Canada in their first match and are also looking for points to have a chance at getting out of the group. Who will get the goals needed to get 3 vital points and set themselves up to possibly steal a knockout stage bid?

In the late match, it’s an anticipated matchup as Mexico attempt to keep themselves in the top spot againt Canada, who looked as good as they have in years 4 nights ago against Martinique. Will Mexico show that they really are the team to beat in the tournament? Or, will Canada show their dramatic improvement as a team by handing El Tri a defeat?
