USMNT and Honduras meet on Matchday 11 of the Final Round of the Concacaf 2022 World Cup Qualifiers. This game will take place at Allianz Field in Saint Paul today, February 2, 2022 at 7:30 PM (ET). The home team wants to leave behind its latest loss against Canada. Here is all the detailed information about the lineups for this World Cup Qualifier game.
The United States have a good spot in the standings of the qualifiers with 18 points, but with the recent loss against Canada the team left a lot of doubts about their offensive strategy to win games and that was the second loss in the qualifiers for the USMNT.
Honduras are eliminated from the World Cup road but the team still has time to win a game to say that they did not win anything during the qualifiers. So far Honduras have a negative record of 0-3-7.
USMNT lineup
The second spot of the standings offers direct qualification to the USMNT for Qatar 2022, but if they lose 2 or 3 games of their four remaining games in the qualifiers things could get more complicated than expected.
The loss against Canada 0-2 on the road was a blow to the USMNT, they did not expect to lose without scoring a goal, but the rival offense was much more efficient and they remain undefeated in the qualifiers. Therefore, Gregg Berhalter decided to shake things up and made seven changes to the lineup.
USMNT starting XI: Matt Turner; Reggie Cannon, Walker Zimmerman, Miles Robinson, Antonee Robinson; Weston McKennie, Kellyn Acosta, Luca de la Torre; Jordan Morris, Ricardo Pepi, Tim Weah.
Honduras lineup
Honduras no longer have anything to fight for to qualify for Qatar 2022 since they are eliminated from the qualifiers, but for reasons of honor the team still has four chances to win a game.
The most recent game for Honduras was another 0-2 home loss against El Salvador, the visitors scoring a goal in each half of the game to win. The defense of Honduras is the one that has allowed the most goals in the qualifiers with a total of 19 goals against.
Honduras starting XI: Luis López; Wisdom Quayé, Maynor Figueroa, Denil Maldonado, Omar Elvir; Juan Delgado, Diego Rodríguez, Alfredo Mejía, Kevin López; Alberth Elis, Romell Quioto.
