Why This Match Matters
Mexico is the defending Nations League champion and was pre-seeded into the quarterfinals as one of the four highest ranked teams. Jamaica had to earn its place, finishing second in Group B.
The series closes on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, at Estadio Monterrey in Monterrey, with kickoff at 9:30 PM ET. The away goals rule means a Mexico goal in Kingston carries extra weight.
It is also Rafael Marquez’s first competitive match in charge of Mexico. His first four games, all friendlies, brought two draws and two defeats, so a result in Kingston would steady the project.
Recent Form
Mexico’s results below are from its four fall friendlies, its only matches under Marquez so far. Jamaica’s results are Concacaf Nations League group matches only.
Mexico drew 1-1 with Colombia and 1-1 with Peru in September. October brought a 3-0 loss to the United States and a 2-0 loss to Chile, leaving Mexico winless with two goals in four games.
Jamaica beat Guatemala 3-2 in Kingston and won 2-0 at El Salvador behind two Javon East goals. A 1-0 home loss to Honduras and a 1-1 draw in Honduras completed a seven-point group campaign.
Team News
Marquez named a 28-man squad built around Santiago Gimenez, Johan Vasquez and Cesar Montes. Alexis Vega, Julian Quinones and Jesus Corona all return to the squad.
Armando Leon is the only first-time call-up. Raul Jimenez is out after knee surgery in October, and Edson Alvarez and Luis Chavez were not selected. The squad trained in Mayakoba before traveling to Kingston on Thursday.
Jamaica’s 23-man squad is captained by goalkeeper Andre Blake and leans on East and Renaldo Cephas in attack. Cephas scored a stoppage-time winner against Guatemala in the group stage.
Leon Bailey is not in the squad, and neither is defender Ethan Pinnock. Interim coach Rudolph Speid otherwise keeps his Group B core.
Head-To-Head
The teams last met at the 2024 Copa America in Houston, where Mexico won 1-0 on a Gerardo Arteaga goal. Jamaica’s Michail Antonio had an equalizer ruled out after a video review.
Mexico is unbeaten in the last four meetings, with two wins and two draws. The last match in Kingston, a Nations League game in June 2022, finished 1-1.
What to Watch
Mexico’s problem is goals. Two in four games under Marquez is not enough, and the returning Quinones gives the attack a direct runner alongside Gimenez.
Jamaica is dangerous at home but not unbeatable there: it beat Guatemala and lost to Honduras in Kingston in the group stage. An early home goal would change the series.
Prediction
Prediction: Jamaica 1-1 Mexico. Kingston has drawn this fixture before, and Mexico’s attack has not yet clicked under Marquez.
