Saint Martin and St. Kitts will battle for three points in a League C fixture in the CONCACAF Nations League on Thursday (March 23).
The hosts are coming off a 2-2 comeback draw against Anguilla in a friendly this month. They trailed by two goals with 16 minutes to go but forced a share of the spoils in the fifth minute of injury time.
Their last competitive fixture saw them draw 1-1 at St. Kitts in June. Pierre-Bertrand Arne put Saint Martin ahead in the 34th minute before Kalonji Clarke levelled matters in injury time.

Saint Martin are rooted to the bottom of the standings, with two points to show for their efforts after three games.
