Panama, led by Thomas Christiansen, comes into this match with high morale after a 1-0 win in the first leg against Costa Rica on November 14. This victory was significant, showcasing a defensively solid and offensively efficient Panamanian team. However, prior results have been inconsistent. On October 15, they fell 2-1 to Canada in a friendly where they struggled to neutralize counterattacks. A similar loss occurred on October 12 against the United States, with a 2-0 defeat exposing challenges in keeping pace with stronger teams.
In the Copa América, Panama alternated between good and bad moments. They defeated Bolivia 3-1 on July 1 but suffered a crushing 5-0 loss to Colombia on July 6, revealing defensive weaknesses. This match against Costa Rica represents a critical opportunity to strengthen their position in the tournament and prove they can maintain consistency against regional rivals.

Costa Rica, under Claudio Vivas, seeks redemption after a 1-0 loss to Panama on November 14, in a match where the Ticos failed to capitalize on their offensive opportunities. Despite this setback, Costa Rica showed strength in previous matches, such as their 3-0 victory against Guatemala on October 15, marked by a dynamic and well-organized attack. On October 11, they drew 1-1 against Suriname, leaving doubts about their ability to finish key games.
Before these matches, Costa Rica had a notable Copa América performance, securing wins like their 2-1 victory over Paraguay on July 2, but also enduring tough losses, such as a 3-0 defeat to Colombia on June 28. This match is crucial for the Ticos, who need a strong result to remain competitive in the group stage.
