USMNT vs. Panama odds, predictions: Concacaf FIFA World Cup qualifying picks, best bets for Sunday's match from top soccer insider

The United States Men's National Team faces Panama on Sunday in a critical match in 2022 Concacaf World Cup Qualifying. Team USA (6-4-2) is second in the third-round qualifying table, with the top three qualifying automatically for the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. But Mexico is level on points, Costa Rica is three points back and Panama (5-3-4) is four behind. This is the penultimate qualifying matchday, so points are critical for the Americans to maintain their spot. The fourth-place team faces a do-or-die playoff against a team from the Oceania confederation.

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET at Orlando's Exploria Stadium. The latest USMNT vs. Honduras odds from Caesars Sportsbook list Team USA as the -250 favorite (risk $250 to win $100) on the 90-minute money line, while Panama is the +700 underdog. A draw is priced at +310, and the over-under for total goals scored is 2.5. (For the latest soccer news and analysis, click here)

Before you bet on the USA vs. Panama match or make any 2022 Concacaf World Cup Qualifying predictions, you HAVE TO see what consummate soccer insider Jon Eimer has to say.

Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge of leagues and players across the globe. Since joining SportsLine, Eimer has covered the English Premier League, Serie A, the FA Cup and much more. The Indiana-based handicapper compiled a winning record of 260-133-1 with over 90 units of profit for his community on various platforms over a recent two-month stretch. He is 8-3 on his World Cup Qualifying picks since his debut. 

Eimer knows the USMNT is clearly among Concacaf's elite teams but need to play like it more consistently. The Americans should be highly motivated after a failure to qualify in 2018 broke a string of seven straight World Cup appearances. They have scored the second-most goals in the third round (16) and are tied for second-fewest conceded (seven), while Panama has yielded 14 in 12 games. Ricardo Pepi (three WCQ goals) and Christian Pulisic (two) led the attack in a gritty scoreless road draw with Mexico on Thursday.

The soccer expert also is aware of Panama's ability to score goals, and it beat the Americans 1-0 in the first qualifying meeting back in October in Panama City. The Panamanians have 15 goals in the 12 games, with Cecilio Waterman leading the way with seven. Rolando Blackburn scored the lone goal in a 1-1 draw with Honduras on Thursday to equal Gabriel Torres with four in qualifying. It held 59 percent possession in the match but couldn't find a second goal. It has allowed more than one goal just once in its past five matches.
