USMNT vs. Colombia picks and predictions Prediction Columbia 2, USMNT 2

Moneyline (ML) SPRINKLE DRAW (+210).

This is the best value on the table. Colombia appears to be in good shape, having won both friendlies this year, one of which was against Spain, which ranks No. 8 in the FIFA Men’s Rankings. Columbia has won 6 straight games but has drawn 3 of its last 9. The U.S. will be one of its tougher challengers.

The USMNT has a similar roster to its 2022 World Cup squad that did make it out of the Group Stage. Led by Pulisic, the USMNT should have its top roster, which beat Mexico 2-0 March 24. This should be a close battle, and for the value, take DRAW (+210).

Over/Under (O/U) BET OVER 2.5 (+108).

Colombia finishes its chances. It tallied 3 goals with 6 shots on frame in its 3-2 win over Romania March 26. It has scored in 6 straight games and has scored multiple goals in 3 of those. It would’ve topped this total in 3 of 6 as well. The USMNT has topped this total in 6 of its last 8 games.

While not all have been with this squad, it went 1-1 O/U on this total in the last 2 Nations League games. USA has a strong attacking core with Pulisic and M Gio Reyna; however, it has an aging backline could struggle against a dominant forward like Diaz. Expect goals to be scored with 2 high-octane attacks Saturday.

BACK OVER 2.5 (+108).
