Today is the end of the penultimate round of CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying and if you will be attending today's USMNT vs Honduras matchup, here's what the weather will be like today in Saint Paul Minnesota, so you'll be well prepared.
Tyler Adams and Chris Richards to miss USMNT vs. Honduras due to injury
This round has had everything but without a doubt the surprise was that Canada has remained as the leader of the competition, accumulating 22 points.
Behind the Maple Leaf country are Mexico and the USMNT with 18 points, but despite being tied, the goal difference puts Gregg Berhalter's team as the second place of the zone.
And if you're ready to attend today's electrifying duel between the Stars and Stripes and the H, you need to know what the weather will be like at Allianz Field.
For today, maximum temperatures of -14 degrees are expected, while the minimum expected is -22. And from 18:30 CT until the end of the game, there will be cloudy skies and wind chill of -23 and -24 degrees, with no chance of rain so far.
It is therefore advisable to go to the stadium warmly dressed in a jacket, scarf, earmuffs, and even a hat to protect yourself from the cold weather that will accompany one of the most interesting duels of the round.
Although the atmosphere will be cold in general, the match will be red-hot as this will be the last match of the round and the USMNT wants to get rid of the thorn left by the 2-0 loss to Canada.
As mentioned above, Gregg Berhalter and Christian Pulisic's team is wounded but not mortally wounded, as they are still in second place in the competition for a ticket to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
However, their pride is wounded because, despite their best efforts, they were unable to beat Canada or snatch the CONCACAF leadership, which means that John Herdman's team is heading to Qatar like an unstoppable train.
In any case, the World Cup Qualifiers are the best scenario for Berhalter to try different combinations in terms of his game plan, especially because today he will not have Tyler Adams and Chris Richards available due to injury.
On the other hand, the Honduran national soccer team arrives mortally wounded to this match since they are in the last position in CONCACAF and their chances of going to the World Cup are almost nil.
The team coached by Hernán Darío Gómez has not been able to win a single game in the World Cup Qualifiers and has 3 ties and 7 defeats, so their dream of going to Qatar in 2022 is almost dead.
But then, will they be a threat to the USMNT? A statement by the Honduran coach indicates that they are.
Coach Dario Gomez has said that they will use the lack of pressure to go to the World Cup as a reason to seek not only their first win in this qualifier, but more importantly for them to become an obstacle for the Stars and Stripes.
Armed with strikers Alberth Elis from France's Bordeaux and Anthony Lozano from Spain's Cadiz, Gomez will be looking to break the team's dismal streak as they take the heat off the U.S. team.
