<h2>Tournament Favorites Survive and Advance to Set Up Sunday Showpiece</h2>
<p>The USA and Mexico went into the Gold Cup as the top two favorites, even with several notable absences for both teams.</p>
<p>And despite some shaky moments and close shaves, they are set to renew their rivalry tonight at NRG Stadium in Houston.</p>
<p>Since the Gold Cup became CONCACAF’s championship tournament, the USMNT has now reached the final 13 times in 18 editions of the tournament.</p>
<p>Two years ago, they fell to Panama in a shootout in the semifinals, and they nearly exited in the same manner a round earlier in this year’s tournament. But after surviving a shootout against Costa Rica in the quarters, they saw off Guatemala in the semis thanks to Diego Luna’s early double strike.</p>
<p>That sets up another Gold Cup final matchup with Mexico, who is in the final of the tournament for the 12<sup>th</sup> time and looking to sweep CONCACAF’s top titles after winning this year’s Nations League final in March.</p>
<p>Mexico reached the final for the fourth consecutive Gold Cup by edging Honduras 1-0 on Tuesday. El Tri produced a fourth consecutive clean sheet, and Raul Jimenez scored the decisive goal in the 50<sup>th</sup> minute to secure safe passage to tonight’s title tilt.</p>

</ul>
<h2>USA vs. Mexico Prediction and Picks</h2>
<p>Based on Gold Cup history and results in this tournament, all signs point to the under being the best USA vs. Mexico bet.</p>
<p>Of the first 17 Gold Cup finals, 11 went under 2.5 goals, including each of the last three.</p>
<p>Since opening the tournament with a 3-2 win over the Dominican Republic, Mexico has not allowed a goal. Sure, the opposition has not exactly been the best, but a clean sheet is a clean sheet, and four in a row is not something to overlook.</p>
<p>The USA has not kept it as tight, but Mexico has scored multiple goals against the USMNT only once in the last seven head-to-head meetings. That lone occurrence happens to be the most recent meeting between the two teams, a 2-0 friendly win for Mexico in October of last year, but in competitive matches, the last time was the Nations League final in June 2021, a 3-2 extra-time victory for the USA.</p>
<p>Mexico is favored here, as they should be. They have come out on top in five of the seven previous USA vs. Mexico Gold Cup finals, and they are the better team of the two in terms of squad strength.</p>
<p>That said, there shouldn’t be much separating the two teams given the stakes, and in what should be a tight contest, taking the USA to lift the trophy has some solid value, even if the first five games have done little to actually give a good read on what this team is and isn’t.</p>
<p><strong>USA vs. Mexico Prediction:</strong> USA to lift the trophy</p>
<p><strong>USA vs. Mexico Picks:</strong> USA/Mexico under 2 (-105 at <a href="https://affiliates.bettingnews.com/register/betonline/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BetOnline</a>), USA to lift the trophy (+118 at <a href="https://affiliates.bettingnews.com/register/bovada/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bovada</a>) &amp; BTTS (Both Teams to Score) &#8211; No (-145 at Bovada)</p>
