Best bets
Despite missing many of their key players, the US are expected to walk all over their opponents in Kansas City.
Greg Berhalter's men kicked off their CONCACAF Gold Cup campaign with a slender 1-0 win over Haiti last Sunday. Sam Vines scored the solitary goal as the United States bagged all three points.
With that in mind, the over/under market looks the logical way to go in the betting. The over 3.5 goals bet is currently available at 17/20 but our tip is to go for over 4.5 goals at 19/10.

Where are America's stars?
The likes of Christian Pulisic, Sergino Dest and Weston McKennie have not been included in America's Gold Cup roster.
Well, with European clubs returning to training ahead of the new season, the US manager believed that these players could do with a bit of a break considering they all heavily featured in the country's successful Nations League campaign.
Martinique facing long odds
Chances of that happening in this tournament depend on the outcome of this game. The odds are certainly not looking good.
