Invited nation Qatar face Honduras with both sides anxious to recover from Gold Cup Group B opening defeats.

Following opening game defeats to Haiti and Mexico respectively, both Qatar and Honduras will be keen to bounce back and keep their dreams alive of progressing to the next stage of the Gold Cup 2023 Round of 16. Qatar, invited to the competition for the second time, also finished third in the 2021 edition, so will be anxious to avoid an early exit against the 1981 competition winners.

The game between Qatar and Honduras will be played on Thursday, June 29, 2023, with kick off at 4:45 p.m. ET/1:45 p.m. PT. at the University of Phoenix Stadium (Arizona).

Qatar v Honduras prediction

The current Asian champions are struggling and delivered an embarrassingly disappointing display at their 2022 World Cup. Since Felix Sanchez’s departure, Al Annabi have failed to respond and were shell shocked by a late Haiti winner in the opening game. Honduras to prevail: Qatar 0-2 Honduras.
