Costa Rica will meet Honduras in a decisive World Cup qualifying match on Tuesday. Both teams have been near the top of Group C throughout the campaign, and they head into the final round level on points. Costa Rica is unbeaten in its last three matches (1 win and 2 draws) after an earlier loss, while Honduras has also been very competitive, sitting just above Costa Rica on tiebreakers. Costa Rica's run includes a recent draw at home and a hard-fought 4-1 win over Nicaragua (with goals from Alonso Martínez and others).
However, they faltered slightly in their last match: losing 1-0 at home to Haiti, which dropped them to 6 points (1 win, 3 draws, 1 loss) after five games. That result snapped a home unbeaten streak but kept Costa Rica firmly in the mix. Meanwhile Honduras sits on 8 points after five games (2 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss) and has been tough at home. The Catrachos defeated Haiti 3-0 (behind goals from Anthony Lozano and Romell Quioto) to retake the group lead, but then shockingly lost 2-0 away to Nicaragua. Prior to that loss they had also drawn 0-0 at Costa Rica.
Overall, Honduras' form includes strong home wins and an unexpected road defeat, while Costa Rica's form has been solid except for that Haiti loss. Both teams have scored consistently; Costa Rica is averaging over a goal per game (thanks to the Nicaragua rout) and Honduras is just ahead (3 goals against Haiti plus others).

Our Costa Rica vs Honduras Prediction
Recent performances of key players suggest how the final game might play out. For Costa Rica, rising stars have been crucial. Forward Alonso Martínez has emerged as a top contributor – he scored twice against Nicaragua and has become a focal point of the attack. Striker Manfred Ugalde (often teamed with Martínez) has also been involved in their scoring chances and leads the team in goals in qualifying. Veteran goalkeeper Leonel Moreira made a penalty save in the Haiti game and kept Costa Rica in contention, but ultimately Haiti broke through.
On the Honduran side, veteran striker Anthony Lozano has led the attack, scoring in the big win over Haiti. His partner Romell Quioto has chipped in with goals as well (and scored in the win over Haiti). Midfielder Kevin Álvarez has been a defensive anchor and also chipped in with an assist or two, while César Montes has been rock-solid in defense. Overall the teams are closely matched on paper and by performance: Honduras edged this group earlier by goal difference, and in their head-to-head meeting earlier this year they played to a scoreless draw.
With stakes high, this will likely be a tight game. Honduras' attack led by Lozano and Quioto may just outgun Costa Rica, though the match could swing either way. Our prediction for Costa Rica vs. Honduras: Under 2.5 goals.
