Mexico and Costa Rica get set to duke it out for first place in Group A of the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup, when they meet in the final match of the opening round on Sunday night.
Both sides come into the final matchday with unbeaten and unblemished records, setting up for a very intriguing contest.
Mexico entered the tournament as heavy favorites to once again make it back to the championship match. They had some moments of despair against the Dominican Republic in the first match of the tournament, but responded with a much better effort on Wednesday night in a 2-0 win against Suriname.

Costa Rica has had to gut it out in its first two contests. They won a high-scoring 4-3 affair against Suriname on Matchday 1, before squeaking out a 2-1 victory over the Dominican Republic on Wednesday.
Now, with both sides level with six points apiece, and Mexico having the better goal differential, La Tri has to not lose in order to secure first place.
That should not be hard, as Mexico is 35-18-7 all-time against Costa Rica.
