Canada, managed by Jesse Marsch, come into the matchup as Group B leaders with four points. After dominating Honduras 6-0 in their opener and playing to a 1-1 draw with Curaçao, Canada needs just a draw to secure a place in the knockout round.
El Salvador, however, finds itself in a must-win situation. Sitting at the bottom of the group with just one point after a 0-0 draw with Curaçao and a 2-0 loss to Honduras, the Salvadorans not only need a win over Canada but must also hope for a draw between Honduras and Curaçao to keep their tournament hopes alive.
