Expert Picks for the Final

Soccer expert Martin Green from SportsLine has provided his Concacaf Nations League final picks. Green, a seasoned sports betting industry professional and writer, has a strong track record in soccer predictions. He is backing Mexico to win without conceding a goal, offering a payout of +160 (risk $100 to win $160).

Historically, Mexico has dominated Panama, winning 13 out of 15 encounters since 2013, with the other two matches ending in draws. In their Nations League semi-final clash last year, Mexico comfortably defeated Panama 3-0.

Panama is currently facing numerous injuries affecting their starting lineup. While they managed to score against the United States in the semi-final, replicating that success against Mexico may be challenging, especially considering Mexico has kept a clean sheet in their last four meetings.

Green states, “Mexico possesses a stronger starting lineup and greater squad depth, along with a dominant record against Panama. They are likely to secure a victory in a relatively low-scoring match on Sunday.”
