Belize sit at the other end of the scale. Just 3 wins from 14 matches, with 35 goals conceded against only 13 scored, including heavy defeats to Costa Rica and Nicaragua. They have managed the odd away win too, beating Saint Martin and thrashing St Kitts and Nevis 6-2, so they're not entirely without moments of quality.

St. Vincent and the Grenadines' recent form looks clearly stronger than Belize's across this sample.

Comparative Team Statistics: St. Vincent / Grenadines vs Belize

Head-to-head: recent meetings lean one way

Five meetings are on record here, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines have won the last three in a row. That includes a 1-0 away win over Belize less than two weeks before this preview was put together.

The two older meetings, both from 2019, were split between a Belize win and a draw, but those games are a long way removed from the current sides.

The recent head-to-head trend sits firmly with the hosts.

Limited player information, one attacking note

There's no full squad list to check fitness for either side, so we can't speak to specific selections. One name does stand out though: O. Anderson has scored twice in a single appearance for St. Vincent and the Grenadines recently, which points to some recent firepower up front.

What might shape the game

This is a Nations League group match between two sides where the gap in recent form and head-to-head record both point the same direction. St. Vincent and the Grenadines have been scoring freely, while Belize's defence has conceded in bulk across their recent run.

Belize have shown in patches that they can take points away from home against sides they're not expected to beat, so it would be wrong to assume this is a foregone conclusion. The match is still roughly a month away from the date this form sample covers, so there's time for things to change on both sides.
