Mexico, the defending champion, will face Honduras in the semifinals of the 2021 edition as heavy favorites.
With teams like El Salvador, Guatemala, and Trinidad and Tobago in the mix, the El Tri had it easy in the group phase. After a dreary goalless draw against Trinidad in the tournament opener, they managed to qualify as group winners with back-to-back victories.
Honduras, on the other hand, started the campaign with a bang, defeating Grenada 4-0 before edging Panama 3-2 in a high-scoring thriller. Their impressive run came to an end when they lost 0-2 to Qatar in the last group game, and they rarely had a chance against the defending Asia Cup champions.
The Los Catrachos are known for making deep runs in tournaments, but this year's team is inexperienced. They are no match for the Mexicans in Sunday's showdown, which the bookies have correctly priced at 8.00 odd to pull off a major shock.

Mexico has without a doubt one of the most well-balanced teams in this year's Gold Cup, and they are our analysts' favourites to win this quarterfinal encounter by a large margin.
Since the 2019 Gold Cup, this team has only lost three of their 23 games, with 17 of those being victories.
