Antigua and Barbuda vs. Guyana

Antigua and Barbuda welcomes Guyana to the ABFA Technical Centre in Piggotts, Antigua and Barbuda.

Both teams were previously foes in League B during the inaugural edition, which was split as each side took a home win. The home side leads the all-time series with seven wins to four and two draws.

D'Andre Bishop leads the Benna Boys with three goals. The home side will look to collect its first three points as it pushes for its first promotion to League A.

Trayon Bobb has five goals for Guyana and will be the man to chase for the likes of the up-and-coming Omari Glasgow. The Golden Jaguars are also starting their third consecutive campaign in League B.

Bahamas vs. Puerto Rico

The Bahamas men’s national team hosts Puerto Rico at the Thomas A. Robinson Stadium in Nassau, Bahamas. This will be the first CNL encounter between the two, but Puerto Rico leads the all-time series with three wins.

Lesly St. Fleur will look to add to his four-goal tally in CNL games. The 34-year-old captain also holds the mark as the nation’s all-time leader in appearances and goals and played a key role in gaining promotion from League C in the inaugural tournament.

Puerto Rico will make its League B debut after a perfect mark of 4-0-0 in League C to gain promotion. Ricardo Rivera leads the team with six goals and two assists, two categories in which he’ll look to increase in this edition.
