Soccer continues to gain popularity in the United States and last week’s CONCACAF Nations League win for the US team added to the feelgood factor after the recent news that global soccer superstar Lionel Messi will be joining the MLS with Inter Miami.
The USMNT is targeting more glory in the 16-team CONCACAF Gold Cup, which the United States is co-hosting with Canada. The action starts on Saturday night as Gregg Berhalter’s team takes on Jamaica in Group A at 9:30 pm ET on FS1, and our expert has the odds, predictions and a best bet.

United States vs Jamaica expert picks
USA vs Jamaica money line pick: USA ML (-145)
It’s a very different USMNT that will begin the CONCACAF Gold Cup against Jamaica on Saturday night than the one team that just won the CONCACAF Nations League. Only 5 players from the successful Nations League squad are also in action in this tournament, with the US having selected a mainly MLS-based roster for this competition. That does mean, however, that every player in action for the Stars & Stripes between now and the potential final at SoFi Stadium in LA on July 16 will be out to impress manager Gregg Berhalter in a bid to become a regular starter.
Jamaica should be the second-strongest team in the group, but this US team should still be strong enough for this mission as Jamaica is winless in 10 games and has lost 5 of those games to low-ranked opposition such as Jordan and Trinidad & Tobago. In contrast, confidence should be high in the United States locker room after wins over Mexico (3-0) and Canada (2-0) to win the Nations League. Most of these players are different but the program as a whole looks to be on the rise and should make a winning start in Chicago.
