Canada vs Guadeloupe tips: Hosts can turn on the style in CONCACAF Gold Cup opener

Canada will be looking for a statement win when they kick off their Gold Cup campaign against Guadeloupe.

Guadeloupe battled valiantly last time they faced Canada, but the Canadians have something to prove going into this game.
Over two decades have passed since Canada last tasted Gold Cup gold. John Herdman's men will be looking to change that in 2023, starting with their opening group game against the French overseas region.

Date, KO time and TV coverage

CONCACAF Gold Cup, Wednesday June 28, Kick-off 00.00am, live on Viaplay

Predicted score

Canada 2-0 Guadeloupe

Suggested bets

Canada to win to nil
Canada to score over 1.5 goals
Canada to score in both halves

Key stats

Canada have won three of their last four games.
Guadeloupe qualified for the Gold Cup with ease, thrashing Antigua and Barbuda 5-0 before beating Guyana 2-0.
Canada haven't won the CONCACAF Gold Cup since 2000.
Guadeloupe failed to win a single game in their last two Gold Cup tournaments.

Verdict

After losing the CONCACAF Nations League final to the United States last week, Canada will be intent on going a step further in the Gold Cup.
John Herdman and his men welcome Guadeloupe to Toronto this Wednesday - a side they should beat considering the wealth of talent in the Canadian squad.
While superstar forwards Jonathan David and Alphonso Davies are not available, Herdman can still count on the experience of Junior Hoilett and Lucas Cavallini, who together boast 91 caps.
In midfield, the Canadians have FC Porto's Stephen Eustaquio, FC Basel's Liam Millar and the much-experienced Jonathan Osorio.
Guadeloupe also have a number of players who practice their trade over in Europe. Nevertheless, Canada are coming off a recent World Cup appearance and should have too much quality for the small Caribbean territory.
The Canadians have won three of their last four games, scoring eight goals along the way.
With the team looking to make a statement at the start of the group stage, our recommendation is to back the hosts to win to nil.
This bet landed back in 2011 when the two nations last met in this same competition.
On that occasion, Canada enjoyed a slender 1-0 victory. This time, we're backing the hosts to score at least two goals.
