- Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.

Form
Costa Rica arrive with a record of one win and four defeats from their last five matches. Their most recent result was a 3-0 win over Nicaragua in the Nations League, though that followed a 2-0 loss to Haiti and a 4-3 defeat to Curacao in the same competition. Across those five games, Los Ticos have scored seven goals and conceded 13, a return that reflects a side that has struggled for defensive consistency. Prior to the Nations League window, they suffered a 3-0 friendly defeat to England and a 3-1 loss to Colombia.
Haiti’s last five matches show three wins and two defeats. Les Grenadiers’ most recent outing ended in a 4-1 victory over Dominican Republic in the Nations League, extending a run that also included a 2-0 win over Costa Rica and a 3-2 victory against Trinidad and Tobago. Their only defeats in that stretch came at the FIFA World Cup, against Brazil and Morocco. Across those five matches, Haiti have scored 12 goals and conceded 11, with their Nations League form pointing to an attack-minded side in confident touch.
Head-to-Head Record
The most recent meeting between these sides came in the Nations League on September 27, 2026, with Haiti winning 2-0. Across the five fixtures on record, Haiti hold a clear advantage, with three wins to Costa Rica’s one and one draw. The sides also met twice during World Cup qualifying, with Haiti winning 1-0 at home in November 2025 and the earlier qualifier in September 2025 finishing 3-3 in Costa Rica. The head-to-head record underlines Haiti’s recent dominance in this matchup.
Standings
In Group 1 of League A, Haiti sit second and Costa Rica fourth. The gap between the sides means Costa Rica need a result to stay in contention, while Haiti can consolidate their position near the top of the group with a positive outcome.
