Bahamas will host Costa Rica this Saturday at the BFA Wildey Turf as part of the Group B matches in the CONCACAF World Cup qualifiers. Unfortunately for the Bahamian team, their hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup are dashed, having lost all three of their matches so far. They currently sit at the bottom of the group table with no chance of advancement after a series of challenging games, including a significant 7-1 defeat to Trinidad and Tobago, a narrow 1-0 loss to Saint Kitts and Nevis, and a disheartening 6-0 loss against Grenada.
In contrast, Costa Rica has displayed dominant form in the qualifiers. They have secured two impressive victories with clean sheets, including a 4-0 victory over Saint Kitts and Nevis and a 3-0 win against Grenada. These results have positioned them strongly in their quest for the top spot in Group B.
Fans can watch the match via various platforms, including Repretel Canal 6 in Costa Rica, Tigo Sports in Guatemala and Honduras, and internationally through CONCACAF GO and YouTube. For those traveling, using a VPN might be necessary to access their usual streaming services.
The match is set to kick off at 3 PM PT / 6 PM ET on Saturday, June 8, 2025. The Bahamas will be without midfielder Andre Roberts, who suffered an injury in their last outing. Costa Rica may have to adjust their lineup if defender Jeyland Mitchell is unable to play due to a knock received in a recent friendly.
This match represents a crucial moment for both teams, with Costa Rica looking to solidify their position in the qualifiers and the Bahamas aiming to restore pride in their performance despite the challenges they’ve faced.
