Canada will host Jamaica at the BMO Field on Wednesday in the second leg of their 2023-23 CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal clash.
The home side come into the midweek clash on the back of a first-leg triumph and will now be looking to finish the job on Wednesday. They picked up a 2-1 win in the reverse fixture on Saturday with Jonathan David opening the scoring from close range before Porto midfielder Stephen Eustaquio wrapped up the win late in the game.
Canada made it to the final of the previous edition of the Nations League before losing 2-0 to the United States of America and will hope they can go all the way this time around.
Jamaica meanwhile breezed through the group stages of the Nations League and are now pushing for their first-ever semifinal appearance in the continental showpiece. They started the first-leg the stronger side and had very good chances to take the lead in the first-half but were guilty of wasteful finishing and now have it all to do this week.
