The top two sides in CONCACAF World Cup qualifying meet on Sunday in Hamilton as leaders Canada take on second-placed USA.

The hosts are the only unbeaten side left in the tournament and managed to claim a 1-1 draw when they faced their southern neighbours back in September.

USMNT, meanwhile, have steadied the ship since losing to Panama in October by recording three wins and a draw in their last four qualifiers and both of these nations are well placed to qualify for this winter's World Cup.

Canada vs United States latest odds

The last time these sides met on Canadian soil was in 2019 when the hosts recorded a 2-0-win ending a near 30 year wait for a victory over their more illustrious rivals.

Another success for John Herdman's side can be backed at 15/8 (2.88) with bet365 while the USA are available at 8/5 (2.60) and the draw at 2/1 (3.00).

Canada vs United States first goalscorer

Ricardo Pepi is the shortest priced player to open the scoring at 5/1 (6.00) ahead of his teammate Gyasi Zardes and Canadian forward Jonathan Davis who are both offered at 6/1 (7.00).

Chelsea's Christian Pulisic meanwhile is offered at 13/2 (7.50).

Canada vs United States preview

Both sides head into the game in strong form and both will be confident of claiming a positive result, although both would also surely be happy to avoid defeat.

The USMNT have not been overly prolific in recent matches netting a solitary goal in each of their last three matches against Jamaica, Bosnia and El Salvador respectively, although the fact they have scored with regularity should be viewed as a positive.

Canada for their part have scored in each of their last nine home qualifiers during which time they have kept just four clean sheets, and backing these two in-form sides to both score should be an attractive option.

Canada vs United States tips and predictions

Both teams to score is priced at evens (2.00) which looks like an excellent option at a healthy price, given both sides' respective scoring records.
