Way too many variables to begin to guess.

I did a few simulations on the ocho and the aim should be 21 points to insure qualification.

Rumors are that CP did not make the trip to El Salvador and is training on his own in Nashville.

So what do y’all think the starters will look like for tomorrow?

The scuffed podcast did a really good rundown of potential lineups for these games. They came to the conclusion that the El Salvador game will be more MLS guys than usual, because of travel and temperature. TSS also did a preview and their lineup was way different. Really hard to know how Gregg prepares for a three game window since we’ve never seen one before.

The past six CONCACAF World Cup qualification tournaments all featured six teams playing 10 matches each. While the 2018 qualification run was particularly strange -- not only did the USA fail to qualify but Panama qualified with just 13 points -- the dividing line has typically been around 15-17 points. Earn 17 or more and you qualify without exception. If you get 16 or fewer, you're relying on circumstance to carry you through.
Due to the coronavirus, the format changed this time around, and now eight teams are playing 14 games each. With a couple of weaker teams in the field, there might be a couple of extra easy-win opportunities for the more high-quality countries, and that might alter the math a little. But 1.7 points per game is still a pretty high bar and would almost certainly result in a top-three finish and automatic qualification. Over 14 matches, that projects to about 24 points.

The scuffed podcast
It''s petty as frick, but I just really hate listening to them, one guy has this smug monotone and the other dude has an annoying lisp.
Just not a good setup for an audio-only medium.

After doing my simulations 'The Athletic' confirmed my research.
