Colombia will welcome Costa Rica for a friendly match as they begin preparations for the FIFA World Cup. This is the first meeting between the two nations in two years and it finds Costa Rica leaking defensively, rightly placing this for a high-scoring prediction.
Colombia are looking to build some momentum as they head for the World Cup in North America. Nestor Lorenzo’s men, who finished with the third-best record in WCQ qualifiers in CONMEBOL, had a poor last international window.
Los Cafeteros lost both of their matches in March, falling at home to both Croatia and France. Colombia are ranked 13th in the FIFA world rankings and have failed to win only one of the eight meetings with Costa Rica.
Costa Rica did not qualify for the World Cup and don’t have much riding on this friendly fixture. Los Ticos haven’t won in nine of their last 10 matches.
They were last victorious in October last year as they hammered Nicaragua 4-1 at home in World Cup qualifying. Despite struggling to win games, Fernando Batista’s men have made it difficult for their opponents to win.
Costa Rica, who lost 5-0 at home to World Cup-bound Iran last time out, have lost just three times in their last 10 matches. La Sele are ranked 51st in the world.

Our Colombia vs Costa Rica Prediction
Our prediction for Colombia v Costa Rica is for more than 3.5 goals. This is the first match in Colombia’s preparations for the World Cup. Playing at home against a team ranked considerably lower in the FIFA world rankings has them as the favorites.
The hosts are one of the best attacking sides going to the World Cup and are blessed with rich attacking talent. Costa Rica, on the other hand, are not a strong defensive side and conceded five goals in their most recent outing.
