USMNT vs. El Salvador: Top Storylines and Predictions for 2023 Nations League

The United States men's national team needs a win or draw on Monday against El Salvador to qualify for the Concacaf Nations League semifinals.

Christian Pulisic and Co. should expect to avoid defeat, if only because of historical results against their upcoming opponents. The Americans have one loss in 27 all-time meetings with the Central American side.

Pulisic ran the show in Friday's 7-1 win over Grenada that placed the USMNT in first place in Group D of Nations League A.

Pulisic, Weston McKennie and a few others who started on Friday should start again on Monday at Exploria Stadium in Orlando, but plenty of changes could be made by interim manager Anthony Hudson to shore up the back line.
