Suriname vs St. Vincent Prediction and Betting Tips | 6th June 2024

Suriname host St. Vincent at the Frank Essed Stadion in Paramaribo on Wednesday in their opening 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match.

The sides have been drawn in Group F alongside El Salvador, Puerto Rico and Anguilla, with the top two sides eventually progressing into the third round.

Ranked 144th in the world, Suriname have won just once since the start of 2023 - a 4-0 thrashing of Grenada in the 2023-24 CONCACAF Nations League. This year, the A-Selection have played just once, against Martinique in a friendly, and that resulted in a 1-1 draw.

Head coach Stanley Menzo has called up 24 players for this month's double-header against Saint Vincent and Anguilla, including five uncapped players in the squad. Real Sociedad's Sheraldo Becker is perhaps the most interesting inclusion, with Middlesbrough's Anfernee Dijksteel also summoned.

Meanwhile, Saint Vincent are coming off the back of consecutive friendly wins over Dominica and Grenada last month. Ranked 173rd in the world, the island outfit will be hoping to channel this momentum into their qualifying campaign.

Suriname may seem like the favorites on paper, but St. Vincent have proved to be tough to play against lately. The Vincy Heat are a good attacking side, and can take apart a struggling A-Selection team, who are ranked 29 places above them.
