Sint Maarten come into this fixture on the back of an unbeaten run over their last five matches, securing three wins and two draws. Their recent results include a 1-0 away win over Aruba, a goalless draw at St. Kitts and Nevis, and a hard-fought 3-2 victory away at Dominica.

Belize have had a mixed set of results in their last five outings, registering two wins but suffering three defeats. Their wins include a commanding 6-2 away victory against St. Kitts and Nevis and a 1-0 away success at St. Martin. However, their losses include a narrow 3-1 defeat away to Guyana and a 2-0 home loss to Panama. Over these five matches, Belize have scored 10 goals but conceded an equal number, highlighting a more open style of play with defensive vulnerabilities. This attacking prowess could pose a threat to Sint Maarten’s defence.

head-to-head record and previous encounters

These two sides have met once before, earlier this year on 27 March 2026. In that encounter, Sint Maarten secured a 3-2 away victory over Belize. The match produced five goals and was closely contested, suggesting that this meeting could also be a tight and entertaining affair. Sint Maarten’s win in the previous meeting may give them a psychological edge heading into this fixture.

broadcast information and expectations

The match is scheduled to start at 02:00 UTC at the FFB Stadium. Both teams will be looking to take the three points and get off to a strong start in the group. Sint Maarten’s unbeaten recent form and previous win over Belize suggest they could have the upper hand, especially playing at home. However, Belize’s attacking threat and thirst for improvement after mixed recent results mean they will be aiming to turn the tide on the road. This encounter could be a competitive contest with goals, given the attacking records of both sides in recent matches.
