USA - Canada

The United States are into the third match of a long window and they are doing it with one of the youngest squads they have put out in years. Thirteen players received a first call up to this camp, a seventeen year old scored against Mexico, and the projected side is full of teenagers and players earning early caps. Mauricio Pochettino has been open about how tired the group is by this stage. Canada arrive in a very different condition. They have not lost since the World Cup, they have not conceded a goal in this window, and they have won three of the last five meetings between the two. The United States have not beaten them since 2023. Taking Canada with half a goal of cover reduces this to a simple question. Can a settled, experienced side avoid defeat against an experimental home team at the end of a draining camp? At better than two to one that reads as a fair price, and the draw falls on the right side of the line. Jesse Marsch has a clear idea of how he wants this team to play, and continuity is the one thing the hosts do not have in this match.
