Mexico will take on Great Britain in Pool B of the World Baseball Classic on Friday, the opening game for both teams. Javier Assad looks set to start for Mexico but Great Britain are yet to announce their starter. Let’s take a look at the matchup and make a prediction. 

Mexico topped their group at the last World Baseball Classic which contained the USA. That was a huge achievement for them, remarkably losing their opening game to Columbia who finished bottom of the group

They made it to the semi-finals of that tournament, sent home after a 5-6 defeat at the hands of Japan who went on to win the World Baseball Classic. Plenty of the same roster are back, led by Randy Arozarena who is a man for the big occasion. 

Great Britain had a disappointing time at the European Baseball Championships last September, losing four of their six games, the two wins coming over Israel and France.

They went 1-3 at the World Baseball Classic in 2023, beating Columbia to ensure qualification for this tournament. They only lost 2-6 to the USA in that tournament, leading for the first few innings.

Our Great Britain vs Mexico Prediction

Mexico will expect to get their World Baseball Classic campaign off to a winning start against Great Britain, but they would have expected to do the same against Columbia in 2023 and ended up as the only team to lose to that particular team. There were just three runs in total when the teams met at the last edition of this and it could once more be a cagey start to proceedings in Pool B. Our Mexico vs Great Britain prediction is under 8.5 runs.
