FIFA ranking: El Salvador vs USMNT - How CONCACAF Nations League teams compare

El Salvador are set to welcome the U.S. men's national team at the Estadio Cuscatlan as they meet in a League A Group D game in the 2022-23 CONCACAF Nations League, on Tuesday night.

La Selecta enter the game as group leaders with 4 points from 2 games - a 3-1 win over Grenada followed by a 2-2 draw against the same opponents.

However, the USMNT have a game in hand as Gregg Berhalter's men began their title defense with a 5-0 win against Grenada in their opener.

United States have been drawn alongside England, Iran and Wales for the 2022 FIFA World Cup later this year. It will be a 11th World Cup since finishing third - their best so far - in the inaugural World Cup in 1930.
