The United States Men's National Team is set to host Panama in an international friendly on Saturday. This is the first meeting between these teams since the Copa America in June, when Folarin Balogun scored the USMNT's lone goal in a 2-1 loss. Saturday's match is expected to have a different feel to it as Mauricio Pochettino makes his debut as the USA's new manager.

A 90-minute draw is priced at +285 and the over/under for goals is 2.5. (For more soccer coverage, click here).

Before you lock in your USMNT vs. Panama picks or predictions, you need to see what proven soccer expert Brandt Sutton has to say.

Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than six years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.

Sutton was SportsLine's top soccer expert in 2022 with a 165-130-2 mark with his soccer picks, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He was also profitable across multiple leagues in 2023, including the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League, FA Cup, Europa League and more.. 

The expert knows the United States wants revenge after being beaten by Panama over the summer. Christian Pulisic and company have gone 0-1-2 across all competition since that match and want to make a good impression on their new manager. They could get off to a slow start as they get acclimated to Pochettino's playbook, but will push hard for a win to boost their confidence ahead of a match against Mexico next weekend.

Sutton also knows that the Panamanians are looking to get back to their scoring ways. After finding the back of the net in five of six matches across all competition, they were clean-sheeted 5-0 by Colombia in the Copa America quarterfinals. Jose Fajardo found the back of the net in consecutive matches leading up to that shutout and should be eager to help his team get on the scoresheet.
