Welcome to our Costa Rica vs Haiti prediction, where we break down the key stats, team news, and betting odds for this crucial World Cup Qualification CONCACAF fixture. With both teams eyeing a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, this Group C encounter on September 10, 2025, promises plenty of drama and tactical intrigue. Whether you’re a seasoned bettor or just starting out, our preview will help you make sense of the numbers and the narrative.
Costa Rica, playing at the Estadio Nacional, come into this match after a 1-1 draw with Nicaragua—a result that ended their impressive eight-match winning streak in World Cup qualifiers. Still, they remain unbeaten in seven straight competitive games in normal time. Under coach Miguel “Piojo” Herrera, Costa Rica have shown a clear tactical identity: dominate possession, press high, and convert chances. In their last outing, they held 63% possession and outshot Nicaragua but struggled to turn dominance into three points, especially after their opponents went down to ten men.
Veteran goalkeeper Keylor Navas is back for the Ticos, bringing experience and leadership to a squad that also features stalwarts like Francisco Calvo and Orlando Galo. The absence of Kenneth Vargas due to injury is a blow, but young talents such as Josimar Alcócer and Alonso Martínez offer fresh energy. Alexis Gamboa was on the scoresheet last time out, and winger Ariel Lassiter is expected to provide width and pace.
Haiti, meanwhile, kicked off their final round of qualifiers with a gritty 0-0 draw against Honduras, extending their winless run to five matches. French coach Sebastien Migne has focused on defensive organization, and his side has now kept three clean sheets in 2025. Key players include Duckens Nazon, a reliable presence up front, and Carlens Arcus, who brings experience at the back. Alexander Pierre impressed in goal against Honduras, making three important saves. Haiti’s squad is well-drilled, and their recent away form—two straight qualification wins without conceding in the first half—shows they can be stubborn opponents.
