A single point separates Los Ticos from the fourth qualifying spot, which is currently occupied by Panama. After a poor start to qualifying, Costa Rica have found their groove, scoring 10 points from their past four games.

One of those came from a massive victory over Panama, who have daunting clashes with the USA and Canada still to come. 

Jonathan David was the match-winner when Canada hosted Costa Rica back in November, but in the four games since, Keylor Navas has conceded just once. David and Cyle Larin have been the most prolific in qualifying, but can they breach this rugged backline?

The hosts have quality attackers of their own in Bryan Ruiz and Joel Campell, and you can follow our guide to get a Costa Rica vs Canada live stream and watch the 2022 World Cup qualifier online from anywhere today.
