The draw is out and the path is clear for the US.. It's time to get the predictions going.. It's December and there really is nothing else to talk about so please humour me if you can.. The US will face the winner of Grenada/Guyana next June in a home and home to advance to the semi-final stage.. I think it's a forgone conlusion that the US will advance to the semi-finals.. Now obviously we don't know yet which teams we will face after the second round but I think we can reasonably conclude that our semi-final group will look like this: USA Jamaica El Salvador Panama With all that being said, let's take a shot at the results for the 2nd rounds and the semi-final round assuming Greneda wins and the semi-final round pans out.. USA vs Grenada: Home - 6-0 win Away - 4-0 win Semi-final round: USA vs Jamaica Home - 2-0 win Away - 1-1 draw USA vs El Salvador: Home - 3-1 win Away - 1-0 win USA vs. Panama: Home - 2-0 win Away - 1-1 draw USA tops the group with 14 pts..
And you've kept your predictions realistic and conservative. We'll win the group. And I think we can grab three points in Panama.
I see the same thing in my crystal ball. I also predict that the US will win every single game in the group, home & away.
