Panama will be at home on Tuesday for the return match of their CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal with Costa Rica. They lead the tie 3-0 on aggregate following their impressive away victory over the weekend. The winner here will then go on to play either Honduras or Mexico for a place in the final. Panama’s victory in San Jose extended their current unbeaten run to six matches. Five of those games have ended in victory. Thomas Christiansen’s men have been on a roll since losing the Gold Cup final back in July. Panama’s last two matches have ended 3-0. Los Canaleros have won the last four meetings with Costa Rica.

Costa Rica have to win here by four clear goals if they are to qualify for the next round. An arduous task made even more difficult by their recent struggles. The visitors have won only twice in their last 10 outings. They have been defeated seven times in this stretch with two of those losses coming in their last two fixtures. Gustavo Alfaro’s men have conceded a massive seven goals in those two games and have scored only once.
