Mauricio Pochettino is eyeing another win when the USA face Canada

USA were criticised for their last-16 exit at the 2026 World Cup but they have responded with a trio of friendly victories and will be aiming to maintain the winning vibe when taking on north American neighbours Canada at Allianz Field in the early hours of Wednesday.

While the summer might have felt like a missed opportunity for the Stars and Stripes, there was widespread praise for Canada after they reached the World Cup knockout rounds for the first time in their history.

Canada’s run ended at the last 16 with a 3-0 loss to Morocco, but they have responded positively in the latest international window with friendly victories over Chile (1-0) and Peru (2-0).

USA have also faced Peru and Chile, registering 4-1 and 4-2 victories, but their best performance since the summer came at the weekend when they eased to a 3-0 victory over Mexico.

Team news

Tim Ream retired from international football after the 2026 World Cup and Ricardo Pepi (foot) had to withdraw from the USA squad.

Prediction

USA have recorded a trio of impressive friendly victories, scoring 11 goals in the process, and their vibrant, attacking football could be key to defeating Canada in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Maurico Pochettino’s side have looked a constant threat with Bayer Leverkusen attacker Malik Tillman at the heart of some of their best offensive play.

Tillman was on target in the victories over Peru (4-1) and Chile (3-0) and could be set to add to his seven international goals.

Canada may struggle to keep the Stars and Stripes at bay but they have a potent front line – featuring Southampton's Cyle Larin and Atletico Madrid’s Jonathan David – and can grab themselves a consolation goal.

Score Prediction: USA 3-1 Canada

Back USA to win, Malik Tillman to score anytime and both teams to score @ 7/1 with LiveScore Bet
