Panama will host Suriname at the Estádio Rommel Fernandez on Wednesday in the fourth game of their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers - CONCACAF third round clash. Both sides will be looking to continue their recent form and get a result to move a step closer to achieving qualification for next year's tournament.
Panama picked up their first win of the round with a narrow 1-0 victory over El Salvador last time out after drawing their previous two games during the last international break. The Canal Men were brilliant in the second round of group stages, winning all four of their games against considerably weaker sides, but will now hope to replicate such form in their final three games of the qualifiers to stand a chance of getting their second-ever World Cup finals appearance.
