The United States men’s soccer team is coming off a performance at the Gold Cup, where it bowed out in the semifinals without its A-team. The Americans were still disappointed with the performance and are looking to build confidence during this stretch of international friendlies. Anyone making USA vs Oman betting picks will see that Oman isn’t expected to provide much of a challenge to the United States.
The West Asian nation is preparing for World Cup qualifiers. Oman previously played two friendlies against much smaller nations to prepare. This game will be a major step up, not just in the size of the nation, but in terms of competitive level as well.

United States vs. Oman Analysis
Oman shouldn’t test the United States
Oman and the United States shouldn’t be one of the more intriguing soccer matches this week. While Oman has won the Gulf Cup in 2009 and 2017, it has yet to qualify for the World Cup. Oman has only played a team from CONCACAF, the soccer federation the United States competes in, twice before.
Oman lost to Costa Rica 4-3 in 2014 and beat Haiti 3-0. In Oman’s most recent friendly, it beat Palestine 2-1.
Key Injuries
Oman doesn’t have any key injuries listed.
Betting Trends to Know
- Oman has seen three or more goals scored in three of its past five matches.
Team USA attempts to heal
The United States men’s soccer team has been a bit of a mess since the Americans were bounced in the Round of 16 in the previous World Cup. Anyone making USA vs Oman betting picks will know that coach Gregg Berhalter was hit with allegations of domestic abuse and nearly not retained as coach.
Berhalter also has bad blood with some of the players on the team. None of that shown through in a recent friendly against Uzbekistan. The Americans got goals from Timothy Weah, Ricardo Pepi, and Christian Pulisic to win 3-0. The United States didn’t score the final two goals until late in the match and will want to do better against Oman.
Key Injuries
The United States don’t have any key players listed on an injury report.
Betting Trends to Know
- The United States has seen three or more goals scored in regulation during three of its past five matches.
