Predictions for Group A: Round 2

Who: Colombia vs. Paraguay
Where: Rose Bowl, Pasadena, CA
Watch: FS1, UDN. UniMas (TV); Fox Sports Go (streaming)                                                Prediction: 2-0 Colombia: Colombia showed the world that they are no joke about being #3 in the FIFA rankings, by easily defeating the US 2-0 Friday. I believe, that because of their simple defeat of the US, they will also beat handily Paraguay with at least a 2-0 score. This will help the winner of Costa Rica-US by handing the winner a opportunity at advancing. 


Who: USA vs. Costa Rica
Where: Soldier Field, Chicago, IL
Watch: FS1, UniMas, UDN (TV); Fox Soccer Go, UDN App (streaming)
Prediction: 2-1 US: I believe the US have what it takes to win a must-win game. They have done it earlier this year against Guatemala, which they have won 4-0, but Costa Rica is no Guatemala. They may not be as good without Keylor Navas, or as good as the 2014 WC squad, but they can get tough points. That said, I think the US will win at home and get the points they need before the finale against Venezuela. Expect tons of shots from each side.

US squad ready for a second chance against Costa Rica.
