Was going to wait to start the new year on Sunday, but. . . .
Just off probably the biggest win in their nation's history, Mexico hosts the Americans in a 120,000 seater that the US has managed one draw and 19 losses. They usually only have the chance to play once every four years, but . . . somehow they're lucky enough to take a weakened side in a homecoming event for their national heros.
The US will have a backline that hasn't played much together without their best holding midfielder and attacker and utilizing a goalkeeper that is looking to blame someone before the ball hits the netting.
. . . .and as intimidating a place as Azteca is to play for the US, they won't be as intimidated as the referee.
Mexico -158 1 unit
