USMNT vs. Venezuela: Scouting Venezuela

The United States Men’s National Team takes on Venezuela, in a pre-World Cup Qualifying friendly, on Saturday.

Although Venezuela has several good players, the United States will undoubtedly be favored in this match.

The USMNT has an all-time record of 3-0-1 against Venezuela with the most recent meeting between the two teams, in 2012, ending in a 1-0 U.S. victory. La Vinotinto enters the contest with a 1-3-1 record in its last five games.

Venezuela will be missing several regulars including captain Tomas Rincon, who will be at the Champions League Final with Juventus, and injured Atlanta United star Josef Martinez.
