Canada: Unbeaten And Unbreached In This Window<\/p>\n
Canada opened the window with a 1-0 win over Chile at BMO Field on September 26, then beat Peru 2-0 at Stade Saputo in Montreal on October 3. Jacob Shaffelburg scored both goals against Peru, in the 19th and 35th minutes, and Canada held 61% of the ball while outshooting Peru 17-4.<\/p>\n
The squad is short several regulars. Captain Alphonso Davies is not with the team because of his wedding and honeymoon, Derek Cornelius dislocated his hip in training, Cyle Larin missed the Peru game with a back injury, and Mo\u00efse Bombito, Alistair Johnston, Ismael Kon\u00e9 and Marcelo Flores are also out. Jonathan David, Buchanan, Eust\u00e1quio and Promise David lead the group Marsch has available.<\/p>\n
This summer’s World Cup was a breakthrough. Canada beat Qatar 6-0 for their first-ever World Cup win, beat South Africa 1-0 in the knockout stage and went out with a 3-0 loss to Morocco.<\/p>\n
USA: A Young Squad Scoring Freely<\/p>\n
Pochettino, back on a new contract after the World Cup, named a 28-man group with an average age of 22 years and nine months. Thirteen players were uncapped before this window, Christian Pulisic is not on the roster, and Damion Downs replaced the injured Ricardo Pepi.<\/p>\n
The youngsters have delivered: 4-1 over Peru in Orlando, 4-2 over Chile in St. Louis and 3-0 over Mexico in Glendale on October 3. The goals against Mexico came from Hall in the 28th minute, Sullivan in the 63rd and Tillman in the 84th, with Sullivan becoming the youngest scorer in program history.<\/p>\n
At the World Cup, the USA beat Paraguay 4-1 and Australia 2-0, lost 3-2 to T\u00fcrkiye, beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 and were knocked out 4-1 by Belgium in the Round of 16.<\/p>\n
Head-To-Head<\/p>\n
The USA lead the all-time series with 20 wins to Canada’s 14. The recent trend belongs to Canada: a 2-1 friendly win in September 2024 and a 2-1 win in the Nations League third-place game at SoFi Stadium in March 2025. In the first FIFA rankings after the World Cup, the USA sat 16th and Canada 30th.<\/p>\n
USA vs Canada Best Bets<\/p>\n
Canada +0.5 at 1.73 (Granawin<\/a>, 20Bet<\/a> and Tonybet<\/a>). Canada have won the last two meetings and have not conceded in this window. A win or a draw cashes this ticket, and that covers both of the most likely outcomes against a young USA side in a friendly.<\/p>\n Both teams to score: Yes at 1.62 (Tonybet, 20Bet and Granawin). The USA have scored in every game of the window and have also conceded in two of the three. Canada have attacking depth even without Davies, and Shaffelburg arrives in form.<\/p>\n Compare more lines at 1xBet<\/a>, 22Bet<\/a> and BetLabel<\/a> once they open the match, and visit our sports betting odds<\/a> page for more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The first USA\u2013Canada meeting since the 2026 World Cup closes the international window on Tuesday night.
