Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic face off on Wednesday in a Group A clash in the CONCACAF Gold Cup. Costa Rica enters the match in strong form after edging Suriname 4–3 in a high-scoring opener. That win followed solid pre-tournament performances, including clean-sheet victories over St. Kitts & Nevis and Grenada.

Over their last 20 matches, Costa Rica has scored 30 goals while conceding 27, showing a balanced but occasionally leaky back line. The Ticos are aiming to advance deep into the tournament and will view this match as a must-win to top the group.

The Dominican Republic, making their Gold Cup debut, suffered a narrow 3–2 defeat against Mexico in their opener but impressed with their attacking threat. Recent performances have been encouraging, with dominant wins over Dominica and consistent play in the CONCACAF Nations League.

They’ve scored 31 goals and conceded 25 in their last 20 outings, with nine clean sheets along the way. Although they lack the tournament pedigree of Costa Rica, their recent form indicates they shouldn’t be underestimated, especially in transition and on set pieces.

Our Costa Rica vs Dominican Republic Prediction

Costa Rica boasts a lineup rich with experience and emerging talent. Goalkeeper Keylor Navas continues to bring leadership and shot-stopping ability, while forward Manfred Ugalde has emerged as a key goal threat, scoring twice against Suriname.

Anthony Contreras and Carlos Mora provide energy and creativity in the final third. The team is reportedly at full fitness with no major injury concerns ahead of the match. Their attacking patterns rely on controlling possession, building down the wings, and exploiting high defensive lines.

The Dominican Republic features several dual-national talents, with defender Junior Firpo leading from the back. Firpo brings experience from top-level European soccer and anchors the defensive line. Heinz Mörschel has provided a creative spark in midfield and plays a key role in linking transitions.

The squad is reportedly healthy heading into the game, which should allow the coaching staff to field their best eleven.

However, Costa Rica’s superior depth and tournament experience should be enough to secure three more points and move them closer to the knockout stage. Our prediction for Costa Rica vs. Dominican Republic: Costa Rica to win.
