On match-day two, the Mexicans once again showed their class in the final third, as they scored three goals and posted 2.58 expected goals for. In contrast, Martinique failed to score against Canada, as they posted only 0.73 expected goals for.
In truth, considering that Mexico were considerably better than Canada, who battered Martinique on match-day one, it’s impossible to see anything other than a comfortable win for the tournament favourites, who’ve been in imperious form recently.
In the betting, ‘Mexico to Score Over 3.5 Goals’ appears to be somewhat generously priced. Given that the Mexicans dismantled Canada, who made light work of scoring four goals against Martinique, Martino’s men are fancied to once again hit their stride. After all, they’ve already proved that they can run riot against minnows when notching seven and creating 6.77 expected goals for on match-day one, while Martinique have shown that they lack defensive solidity against useful sides.
