The CONCACAF FIFA World Cup qualifiers continue this week and will see the USA host Honduras at Allianz Field on Thursday.
The USA were beaten 2-0 by Canada in their last game, ending a four-game unbeaten run in the World Cup qualifiers and five across all competitions.
Despite the loss, manager Gregg Berhalter praised his side's performance, tagging it 'dominant'.
The home nation sit second in the table with 18 points from 10 games. They will now be looking to return to winning ways as they chase a first World Cup appearance since 2014.
Honduras are now out of the running to qualify for the World Cup and will play their remaining qualifiers as formalities. They were beaten 2-0 by El Salvador last time out, marking a seventh straight loss across all competitions.
Honduras sit bottom of the group with just three points from 10 games. They will, however, be looking to cause a major upset with a positive result this week.
