Last games
Because it plays in different confederations, Qatar has not played many matches against CONCACAF teams, but in the most recent three it has remained undefeated by beating El Salvador (friendly game), drawing with Panama and defeating Grenada.
Key player Qatar
Akram Afif has become a great threat, as his physical display and speed have been a pain for the defenses in turn, highlighting that he scored against both Panama and Grenada, so he will be looking to keep the same momentum in this match.
Key player Honduras
Romell Quioto has been one of the best for the Catrachos in the first two games, being fundamental in the 3-2 victory over Panama with a brace. His eye for goal and his ability to generate danger from his feet make him a player to watch.
