Guyana will entertain Puerto Rico at St. Peter's Community Center in the CONCACAF Nations League on Tuesday.
Guyana vs Puerto Rico Preview
Guyana are in a stronger position heading into the clash, having won the reverse fixture 3-1 a few days ago. They are expecting another success over Puerto Rico in a clash that could seal the fate of Group D of League B. The hosts lead the group with nine points following three straight wins so far in the competition.
The Golden Jaguars were defeated in their two exhibition matches against Ethiopia (2-0, 2-0) ahead of the CONCACAF Nations League. However, they appear to be in better shape and could clinch a promotion to League A for the first time. Guyana boast three wins in their last five matches at home.
Puerto Rico are second-placed with six points and remain the hosts’ main challenger in the race for the group’s sole ticket to League A. Their 3-0 home loss to Guyana came as a surprise as Puerto Rico were billed to carry the day. However, the visitors could be planning to take their revenge, which could blow the race open.
Los Boricuas earned promotion from League C last season and will relish the prospect of achieving another worthwhile progress. There is the possibility of that happening based on their current form. Puerto Rico have won eight of their last 10 matches in all competitions, and have won four of their last five away matches.
