Honduras will host Cuba at the Estadio Nacional Chelato Uclés on Sunday in another round of the 2023-24 CONCACAF Nations League campaign.
The home side have had mixed results in the continental showpiece so far but remain hopeful of securing a spot in the quarterfinals of the competition next month. They were beaten 1-0 by Jamaica in their first group game before thrashing Grenada 4-0 in their second game.
Honduras sit third in the group table with just four points from an obtainable nine. Failure to win on Sunday will mark the end of their run in the tournament.
Cuba, meanwhile, kicked off their Nations League campaign with a goalless draw against Haiti before beating Suriname 1-0 in their next game, with William Pozo-Venta scoring the sole goal of the game in the first half.
The visitors sit a place and a point above their weekend opponents in the group table and could advance to the quarterfinals with just a point on Sunday should results elsewhere go in their favor.
The two sides faced off in round three of the tournament on Thursday, playing out a goalless draw at the Félix Sánchez Olympic Stadium.

Honduras vs Cuba Prediction
Honduras are on a run of back-to-back unbeaten outings and have lost just one of their last six games across all competitions. They fully deserved to win against Los Leones del Caribe on Thursday but were guilty of wasteful finishing and will be looking to fix that this time around.
Cuba are on a three-game unbeaten streak, although they have won just one of their last eight games. They have struggled to impress in this fixture of late and could see defeat here as well.
Prediction: Honduras 2-0 Cuba
