Team Reviews
Guadeloupe
Guadeloupe, nicknamed Les Gwada Boys and managed by Jocelyn Angloma, is last in Group C with 0 points after losses to Panama (5-2) and Jamaica (2-1) on June 20, 2025, at PayPal Park, San Jose. Jordan Leborgne and Florian David scored against Panama, but defensive lapses cost them dearly, conceding four goals in 22 minutes. Their form shows 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last five competitive matches, averaging 1.2 goals scored and 2.0 goals conceded. Key players include forward Raphaël Mirval and defender Jérôme Roussillon, crucial for defensive stability. Guadeloupe’s strengths are their set-piece threat and passion, as the Gold Cup is their pinnacle event (not a FIFA member). However, their defense has been porous (7 goals conceded in 2 games), and they need a win by at least two goals and a Jamaica loss to Panama to have a chance at the quarter-finals. They qualified with a 2-0 aggregate win over Nicaragua in the Prelims.
Guatemala
Guatemala, coached by Luis Fernando Tena, is second in Group C with 3 points after a 1-0 upset win over Jamaica (Óscar Santis scoring) on June 16, 2025, and a 1-0 loss to Panama on June 20, 2025, both at Dignity Health Sports Park, Carson. Their form includes 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last five, averaging 0.8 goals scored and 0.6 goals conceded. Key players include forward Santis, a standout with 3 goals in qualifiers, and USL Championship’s Damian Rivera, adding flair. Guatemala’s strengths are their defensive organization (only 1 goal conceded in the group stage) and growing confidence post-2016 FIFA suspension recovery. However, their attack lacks potency (1 goal in 2 games), and they need at least a draw to secure a quarter-final spot, though a win ensures it unless Jamaica wins big. They qualified via the Nations League B group stage.
Head-to-Head
Guadeloupe and Guatemala have met three times in the Gold Cup, with Guatemala leading 2-1. Guatemala won 3-2 in 2007 and 1-0 in 2021, while Guadeloupe won 3-1 in 2009. Their matches average 3.3 goals, with 100% producing over 2.5 goals, suggesting a potential for goals. Guatemala’s recent defensive solidity contrasts with Guadeloupe’s high-scoring losses, giving Guatemala a slight edge.
Prediction: Guadeloupe 0-1 Guatemala
This Group C match on June 24, 2025, at Shell Energy Stadium, Houston, at 7:00 PM ET (6:00 PM local time), is a make-or-break clash for both teams. Guadeloupe needs a win by 2+ goals and a Panama win over Jamaica to advance, while Guatemala can qualify with a draw or win, per ESPN’s qualification scenarios. Guadeloupe’s Mirval and set-pieces could test Guatemala’s defense, but their backline struggles (7 goals conceded) make them vulnerable to Santis and Rivera. Guatemala’s compact style and recent win over Jamaica give them confidence, though their low goal output is a concern. Posts on X favor Guatemala (57% win odds, 1-0 or 1-1 likely) due to their defensive edge, while Guadeloupe’s 5-2 loss to Panama exposed weaknesses. Both teams’ trends (Guadeloupe: 60% of last 5 over 2.5 goals; Guatemala: 20%) suggest a low-scoring game. The match, streamed on FS1 and FuboTV, may see cards if Guadeloupe’s urgency leads to fouls.
Guatemala is likely to score through Santis or a counter, while Guadeloupe’s defense collapses late. Guatemala’s defensive discipline should secure a narrow win, advancing them to the quarter-finals, though Guadeloupe’s fight could keep it close.
