Current form: USMNT vs Jamaica
So far, the United States are unbeaten so far in 2019. Although their three game winning streak was snapped in a frustrating one-all draw with Chile this past March, Gregg Berhalter nonetheless is likely satisfied with the progress the Stars and Stripes have made. The draw with Chile was the first time his team had conceded a goal under his tenure, and the first since losing 1-0 to Italy in November of last year.
Next up on the menu, of course, for Team USA is the Gold Cup, and certainly, Berhalter will want his men to head into that tournament - which they are viewed as heavy favorites to win it - ready to go. It's been a couple of months since the team last all played together, and thus an upcoming friendly with very familiar foes Jamaica would certainly do the trick in helping the new USMNT boss figure out his best formations and likely a key part of his starting XI ahead of the Gold Cup kicking off in just over two weeks' time.
Meanwhile, Jamaica, who will serve as co-hosts for the upcoming Gold Cup, have not had the best start to 2019. The Reggae Boyz have not only yet to win a game so far this year, but have yet to score a goal - although they will have only played in two matches before they take on the USA in Washington, DC on June 5th. Following this match, they will be in action against Honduras on home soil as the Gold Cup begins in the middle of the month, and certainly they will be hoping to spring some kind of upset against their hosts.

However, veteran striker Jozy Altidore is back in the fold for the first time in nearly two years, and the third all-time top goal-scorer will be looking to add more goals to his 41 so far for the USMNT as he aims to close the gap on joint-leaders Clint Dempsey and Landon Donovan (57).
