What is Mexico and USA's CONCACAF Gold Cup record?
Mexico is the most winning team in CONCACAF Gold Cup history, with seven titles to their name. Their last win in this competition came in the 2015 edition, where they defeated Jamaica in the title match with a 3-1 score. This will be their first CGC final against the USMNT since 2011. That game concluded with a 4-2 win for El Tri.
The USMNT is the second best team in the history of this tournament, having won six titles to this date. The Stars and Stripes are eager to win back-to-back Gold Cup titles for the second time ever, following their conquests from 2005 and 2007. The defending champions will be involved in their fourth Gold Cup final in the last five editions.
What is Mexico and USA's form ahead of this game?
Mexico is still unbeaten under Gerardo "Tata" Martino, even after two straight games that have been decided in extra time and a penalty shootout. El Tri eliminated Costa Rica after penalties in the Quarter final stage, and then, the Mexican side eliminated Haiti after 120 minutes of playing time.
The USMNT have won five games in a row en route to the final. The Stars and stripes eliminated two teams from the Caribbean in the KO stage, having won 1-0 against Curacao and 3-1 against Jamaica. The Reggae Boyz were the first team to score against Gregg Berhalter's men, which gives us a glimpse on how things could go down on Sunday.

Mexico vs USA - Major absences
Mexico will have to deal with Erick Gutiérrez's absence, following the thigh injury he picked up in the match against Canada. Coach Gerardo Martino will return to the bench after serving his one-match ban, and he will also hope for captain Andrés Guardado to be available, since the player has been subbed off due to a muscular complaint that has kept him from playing the full 90 minutes in the past two games.
As for the Stars and Stripes, coach Gregg Berhalter will have a full squad to choose from in what will be his first match as USMNT's coach against Mexico. His main doubt has to do with his starting striker, with Gyasi Zardes and Jozy Altidore fighting for that spot.
