Costa Rica will face Haiti on Tuesday at the Estadio Nacional in San José in a crucial World Cup 2026 qualifier, according to EFE. After a surprising 1-1 draw with Nicaragua last Friday, Miguel Herrera’s team is under pressure to win and regain confidence in the competition.
The main challenge for Costa Rica will be to connect midfield players with strikers Manfred Ugalde from Spartak Moscow and Adrián Alonso Martínez from New York City, who have yet to show their club form on the national stage. Herrera is likely to adjust the midfield to gain better control and create more effective attacking options.
Costa Rica has its full squad available, including experienced goalkeeper Keylor Navas, which raises expectations for a home win. Haiti, led by coach Sébastien Migné, arrives in San José energized after a 0-0 draw with Honduras, hoping to challenge the group’s favorite.
While the draw with Honduras somewhat eased the blow of Costa Rica’s previous result, the team has little room for error. Only the group winner will move directly to the World Cup, making Tuesday’s match a vital test for Herrera’s squad, potentially impacting their path to qualification.
