SportsLine expert Jon Eimer reveals his predictions and analysis for Sunday's Concacaf Gold Cup 2025 matchup between the United States and Mexico

Team USA and Mexico both had to huff and puff in the semifinals, but they each advanced to set up a tantalizing final in the 2025 Gold Cup on Sunday night. The Stars and Stripes went up by two goals early on Guatemala, but they were put on their toes by an 80th-minute goal by Olger Escobar.

The team that many had written off are still dancing, finding ways to win throughout the tournament and getting some excellent performances at key times. They now go up against a Mexico team that is close to full strength and flying high after a relatively easy path - despite a couple hiccups - through the tournament to the final match.
